We are thrilled to share our latest initiative to promote sustainability, exchange gardening ideas, and make our college a greener place! We have kicked off a series of gardening workshops at DGHE, and it’s been an exciting journey so far!

The workshops are delivered by Fiona Nouri, our Advice and Wellbeing Officer, with support from our Art & Design lecturers, Roshi Khakban and Patricia Mulligan. We’ve already held two successful workshops on the 21st and 26th of February; they were planting, growing, and maintaining herb plants.

While displaying some of her herbs, Fiona gave us some helpful advice. We learned how to plant seeds, propagate plants, where to put them, and how to care for them properly. The best part was that we had the chance to put knowledge into practice as we planted seedlings of Mint, Fennel, Basil, Coriander, Sage, Thyme, Chive, and Parsley!
