Linda Brennan is a Redlands author, educator and horticulturist, with two books on edible flowers, and an infectious joy of gardens, food and fabulous flowers. Linda will bring a seasonal selection of edible flowers so you can see, touch and enjoy them firsthand.

She will also share inspiring examples and recipes for the most delicious ways to enjoy edible flowers that you can grow in your own garden or in pots on your patio. At the end of the presentation, you can take home some of her organic seeds or plant material for cuttings, to start growing in your own garden.

With Linda’s book, A Delicious Bunch, and for her deep knowledge and holistic approach to organic home production, Linda has devoted her career to health and vitality by nurturing life, people, and the environment, and is an inspiration to those who seek to grow bountiful, life-giving gardens with flowers and organic food in abundance.

Edible flowers create a spectacular effect on celebration cakes, but how do we use them in our everyday meals to add eye appeal, flavour and nutrition?

You'll want to grow more flowers at home with Linda's easy to follow growing tips for these wonderful additions to your garden too.
