THIS FEST'S HIGHLIGHTS!
A) FREE Workshop: Join plant expert Roy Vickery to learn to identify the plants you walk past every day! Find about how your weeds were valued as resources in earlier times, and might be used in the future. Please bring two plants you consider weeds in your garden, window box or street. Roy is a botanist who worked at the Natural History Museum for many years and is an expert on plant folklore.
