This workshop is part of the Garden Museum's new Branch Out programme, a series of free events and activities exploring gardening, art, floristry, plant science, history, design, and more!
Drop in for a chat with our Head Gardener Matt Collins to ask any burning questions you have about gardening, from creating gravel gardens to kickstarting careers. Take a tour of the courtyard to delve into its past, present and future as we reveal our plans for the summer and autumn ahead.
This session is part of a seasonal Branch Out series.
Our Branch Out programme has been made possible thanks to funding from Arts Council England.
