The Erasmus+ project “Craft Skills for Garden Conservation” (CSGC) gives all people interested in heritage gardens upskilling opportunities. Join us for the webinars and apply for the workshops!
Heritage gardens encapsulate so much of the natural and cultural capital and require a huge amount of knowledge and skill. But both are in increasingly short supply. CSGC aims to address this problem by finding best practice in nine selected fields of Garden Conservation (as below) and by facilitating arenas for learning and sharing.

During a period of three years, several activities have been and will be arranged:
– nine all-day winter webinars will introduce one topic of Garden Conservation each and to prepare the following thematic workshop
– nine practical workshops to explore and to train the practical skills required
– five cross-cutting seminars/conferences for the dissemination and sharing.
Read more about the project and recent news on the project website of the project leader Vea – Norway’s green vocational college.
