The Royal Parks: Gardening for People and Planet (LIVE)

Discover how to grow a garden that’s good for you and the planet in this talk with Matt Pottage. The changing climate isn’t kind to gardeners. As soon as you’ve mastered one weather extreme, along comes another. So how will we keep our parks, horticultural areas and green spaces flourishing in this changing world? And how do we do our part by doing it sustainably? Matthew is the Head of Horticulture and Landscape Strategy for The Royal Parks in London, and former Curator of RHS Garden Wisley. He has authored his first book, ‘How To Garden When You Rent’ and is a regular panellist on BBC Radio 4’s Gardeners Question Time. He is a trustee for Fulham Palace and the Chelsea Physic Garden and is part of the RHS Woody Plant Expert Group. In his free time, when not gardening or travelling, he shares his horticultural musings on The Garden Collective.
