Join award winning garden designer Lottie Delamaine to discuss her new book Gardens That Can Save The World and discover how to transform your garden or local green space into a tool for positive change.
Lottie Delamain is an RHS Chelsea award-winning garden designer. She trained at the Inchbald School of Design and has worked on gardens around the UK, from small urban spaces to historic estates. She is also a regular contributor to House & Garden magazine, and a trustee of We Are Grow, a charity working with schools & communities delivering programmes in sustainable food growing and outdoor learning. This is her first book.
Gardens That Can Save the World presents exploration of the many ways in which green spaces can be the solution to some of our most pressing problems, from loneliness to climate change.
With the world warming, prices soaring and crises all around, it's easy to feel powerless in our everyday lives. But what if the solutions to many of these problems could be found simply by going outside?
Bringing together the galvanizing stories of 65 projects that revolve around plants, Gardens that can Save the World reveals how small changes can have a big impact on you, your loved ones and the environment around us.
Whether you're a green-fingered garden aficionado or have yet to step outside your front room, award-winning garden designer Lottie Delamain's uplifting book reveals how people from all walks of life are harnessing nature to right the planet's wrongs. Packed with inspiration, it will encourage you to try out easy-to-replicate strategies in your own plant pot, balcony, or further afield.
