Program Description

Event Details

Join garden writer Jessica Damiano on a virtual tour of two very different horticultural English gems: Ashdown Forest, the little-known, real-life inspiration for Winnie the Pooh’s Hundred Acre Wood, and Kew Gardens, the world's most famous botanic garden, which is believed to be the most biodiverse place on the planet and has a direct connection to the Mutiny on the Bounty!

Jessica Damiano is an award-winning journalist, gardening coach, Cornell-trained master gardener and author of The Weekly Dirt email newsletter. She was formerly Newsday's nationally syndicated, prize-winning Garden Detective columnist.

Register for Zoom link beginning March 16.

The program is in partnership with public libraries in the Town of Huntington.
