Talk: with Maggi Brown
“A Healthy Garden Needs Diversity”
Come and learn about diversity and its value in the garden. Maggi Brown has a wealth of experience at explaining all aspects of growing and horticulture to all sorts of audiences and a real feel for the kind of information they will need and enjoy learning. So if you would like to learn more about a healthy garden - or perhaps you are involved in working with groups of people who aren’t quite sure about what diversity might be about in relation to growing and plants - if you’d like to hear from an expert in passing on information and enjoyment – come along!
