Join us for an interactive training session with Than at Regent's Park Allotment Garden to learn about how to grow food in light of climate change on Sunday 16 October, 10.30am-1pm.
The recent drought and heat waves have taken a heavy toll on plants.
With more weather extremes anticipated, what will be the impacts on our food growing systems?
What can we do to make our gardens and allotments more resilient to climate change?
This interactive workshop will explore strategies to help adapt to these changing times, with a focus on soil care, water management and plant selection.
