An evening with award-winning gardening and food writer Lia Leendertz who is reviving the tradition of the rural almanac, connecting you with the months and seasons via moon-gazing, foraging, feast days, seasonal eating, meteor-spotting and gardening. She will discuss almanacs and the creation of her own (The Almanac, Unbound, £9.99) for 2018, and will share the tools and inspiration you need to celebrate, mark and appreciate each moment of the year.

This event is run in partnership with the Friends of Bishopston Library and is part of Healthy City Week 2017.
