Planting design at Kew – explore the world of edibles and how to design them into your gardens
Join us at Kew this autumn for a fascinating day of discovery into the diversity of edible plants, designing with edibles and an introduction to forest gardening with writer, grower, photographer and cook, Mark Diacono .
In 2004, Mark began creating Otter Farm from two blank fields in southwest England. It became a ground-breaking 17-acre smallholding, growing almost certainly the most diverse range of edible plants in the country.
From plants to cooking to lots of randomly wonderful and warm facts in between, Mark has an incredible talent as a storyteller that will leave you both enriched and inspired!
