What it does
Charles Dowding's site provides no-dig gardening education through videos, books and courses. Its online courses distinguish introductory principles from more detailed growing skills.
The course distinction is useful when choosing where to begin. The introductory no-dig course focuses on the method's foundations and creating a growing space, while Skills for Growing moves into topics such as propagation, spacing and harvesting. Video material and the newsletter provide a lighter introduction before a paid course. Choose the route according to your existing growing knowledge, rather than buying a bundle simply because several lessons are offered together. The resource is centred on a particular gardening approach, so use it to understand that approach and its practical context.
