About this Event
Drop into the RHS Lindley Library for our spring series of Lindley Live!
Join our Rare Books Librarian as we explore the world of Jane Louden. From a pioneer of science fiction (with her book ) to a prominent voice within horticulture, writing an array of books aiming to empower women to try their hand at gardening.
Our informal show and tells offer a 15 minute introduction to the treasures of our Library collection to liven up your lunch break. No need to book, just drop in. RHS membership not required.
