Keeping Cool in the Garden

HELP - we need all hands on deck from 10.30 to help us WATER our garden! We will be doing all fun things to stay cool 

• Make a fun sun hat, decorate a fan, and of course eat ice lollies! 
• As part of our collaboration with the Crick Discovery Day we will be looking at things in the garden under the magnifying glass and see the world with fresh eyes!

Grow Where You're Planted 

Fam Sat wanted to celebrate our fantastic neighbours over the years, The British Library, who let us convert their land behind the library into The Story Garden. 

• We will be sharing with families the ancient gardening technique called '3 Sisters', a way of planting so that each plant supports the other (like families) whilst making the most of limited space (like different communities in urban settings).
• On the day will be planting corn from different countries in a planting of corn ceremony, which we will create with families in the moment - popcorn style! 
• Fran the potter will be showing some lucky folks how to throw pots. We will be working (playing) with diverse types of clay dug up from up to 100m in the Story Garden by developers getting ready for the space's next life. Can you make a vegetable out of clay? Best three vegetables will be fired in the kiln then yours to keep! 

To find out more about how the Story of the Story Garden continues after we close, please see our blog 

See you soon!
