What role can herbs play in a city, why are they integral to an urban landscape - and are we in the midst of a herbalism resurgence?

Hackney Herbal founder Nat Mady and herbologist Maya Thomas will explore the rich and fascinating history of herbalism in London, from Culpeper to Chelsea Physic Garden, and give practical advice on how and where to start bringing herbs into your life even while living in the city.

Chaired by author Alice Vincent, the evening will discuss the important role of women in herbalism’s history and how it encourages a new way of looking at, and learning about, the diversity of the people and plants that make up the capital. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own herb stories to this intimate and open evening.
