Resilient gardens and comfortable homes of the future – Video launch

19/11/2021

Comments

 
***EDITED - This event is now to be held on Wednesday 15th December at 7pm due to technical difficulties on the original date***
​With changes in climate, can we re-assess what is possible in landscapes and gardens? What crops, what seasons, what methods and who is already demonstrating leadership in this area and how? What would a comfortable home able to withstand climatic fluctuations of 2040 have to have in place and how would you do it?
These are just some of the questions answered by forward thinking home and garden owners in a new video series, set to debut on Thursday 2nd December at 7pm in an online video and Q&A launch.
