Urban Herbal Equinox Celebration

  • 1 Trowbridge Rd, Hackney Wick, London E9 5LD (map)

Join us for an open afternoon at our garden in Hackney Wick in celebration of the Autumn equinox. We will be celebrating the transition from summer to autumn and acknowledging the importance of this time in the season. The event is free to attend.

We will have a range of herbal drinks and teas made from our Hackney-grown herbs and delicious cakes made by Iva @cornflower_e5 available to purchase. There will also be some plants for sale along with our herbal tea packs, pamphlets and journals.

We are tying to minimise the use of disposable cups so please bring your own mug for drinks.

The event will take place outdoors at Trowbridge Gardens - in both the Herb Garden (entrance on Trowbridge Road) and the Big Garden (entrance on Chapman Street).
