The Land Gardeners by Bridget Elworthy on ZOOM

  • Thursday, January 20, 2022
  • 10:30 AM 11:30 AM 10:30 11:30
  • Google Calendar ICS

Bridget Elworthy, together with Henrietta Courtauld,  launched The Land Gardeners in 2012,  at Wardington Manor,  Bridget’s home in Oxfordshire (England). Together they worked to reawaken the Manor’s history of growing blooms for London florists and homes and bringing the gardens alive. Their belief in soil health, growing organically and working with nature is central to all their work.  They have experimented with many gardens – a Cutting Garden and Walled Garden, a Dahlia and Tulip Border, a Perennial Borders and gardens along the Walks, around The Pond, into the Orchards and by the Church. So much to inspire! When Bridget joins us on ZOOM, she will share all aspects of growing a productive cut-flower garden, their favourite flowers and what to gather by season.   At the Luncheon, there will be a draw for their book – The Land Gardeners  CUT FLOWERS  (Thames & Hudson 2019) www.thelangardeners.com
