London Gardens Network
10th Anniversary Summer Party
19th September 2019 Chelsea Physic Garden
Event Information
Since the founding of the LGN in 2009 we have held seminars and talks ranging from the historical landscape to the future of horticulture.
This event was a celebration of the LGN and what it means to be a gardener in London. Rosie Atkins, one of the founding members of the LGN, gave an insight to the ideas behind forming the organisation as a network for gardeners to better communicate and share knowledge.
Adam Frost, renowned designer, gave a fantastic opening speech encouraging people to take up horticulture and pass on knowledge to the new generation of professional gardeners.
Ashley Edwards the current chairman took a moment to tell us that as well as organising seminars and talks, we also donate money to charities and horticultural establishments.
To see a mingling of established horticulturists with the new was inspiring and the beautiful setting of Chelsea Physic Garden in the evening light made for an unforgettable event.
