In this workshop on 6 November, Babylonstoren's master botanist and conservation ecologist Arné Stander will share their knowledge on creating a freshwater pond at home.

A thriving freshwater pond in your garden creates a habitat for various animals and plants. A well-established pond becomes a functioning ecosystem, including amphibians, freshwater invertebrates, and attracts birds as well as small mammals and reptiles.

In this workshop on 6 November at Babylonstoren, master botanist Ernst van Jaarsveld and conservation ecologist and entomologist Arné Stander will share their knowledge on creating such a ecosystem at home – from where to start, what substrates to use, what plants to plant, and what fish you can add to create a wonderful oasis in your garden.

R1200 per person and includes steaming coffee from the Lekker Room upon arrival. Lunch in the Greenhouse is included.

Please meet us at the Farm Shop. Only 15 places available.
