As part of Haringey's Go Green Eco Urban Festival and National Park City's Grow Urban Festival, MHSG is excited to be teaming up with the trailblazing community horticulturalists at Wolves Lane Centre in Wood Green, to offer a packed, free programme of tours and talks focused on community growing, a fairer, healthier, more sustainable food future, the restoration of urban wetlands and increasingly vital Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS).
This fascinating four hour event will include a guided tour of the 3.5 acre site by director Yvonne Field OBE, followed by an optional fresh, vegan lunch (£8 - £10 extra), and expert talks from Paulette Henry, co-founder of Ubele Initiative and their Black Rootz project (the UK’s first multigenerational Black-led growing project), and Nick Oliver from WWT’s London Wetland’s Centre - also an expert on SuDS - who will be discussing their work restoring these vital resources for carbon storage, biodiversity, natural habitat and flooding & pollution control.
