This is such a thoughtful project @honeyscribe and @LibrariesUnLtd well done
The Gatherer’s, led by @honeyscribe, helps resettled Afghan families in North Devon connect through nature & art. Families create bookmarks from pressed flowers, hidden in library books as special gifts. Learn more: tinyurl.com/TheGatherersProj… #TheEuropeChallenge2024

What awful news. Surely our foremost poet. His poems could up-end you like a drug. Entirely attuned to the natural world, and the strangeness of worlds just beyond our senses. Novelist, essayist, columnist - a mighty talent. penguin.co.uk/articles/2024/…

Does anyone have the Madagascar or rosy periwinkle plant (Catharantus roseus) growing / in bloom? I would love a few flowers to press and incorporate into a commission for a hospital. @kewgardens @wakehurst_kew @ChelsPhysicGdn
