A Wilder Way - Talk Only
Join writer and grower Poppy Okotcha and journalist Dipal Acharya for a compelling talk on Poppy’s debut book, A Wilder Way: How Gardens Grow Us. In this beautiful memoir, Poppy invites the reader into her wild garden in Devon, where she explores how tending a patch of earth can transform not only our immediate surroundings but also our relationship with the wider world.
At Thyme this May, Poppy shares practical tips on sustainable living and seasonal foraging. She emphasises that gardening is not just about cultivating plants but also about nurturing a deeper connection to the earth and oneself. Her approach blends gardening insight with personal storytelling, inviting attendees to reconsider their relationship with nature and find healing through the act of growing.
Included in the ticket price is a welcome refreshment.
Following the talk, there will be time for an audience Q&A and a book signing with Poppy.
