It’s a great chance to hear stories of how Lulu came to be the world class landscape design and ecological restoration expert she is now and how she advocates for Nature through Urqhart & Hunt’s work with major estates and communities across the Europe.

Lulu shares about:

  • Her interest in Auyavedic and UK medicinal plants and how that led to developing her plant knowledge through working in plant nurseries.
  • Exploring the art of bringing plants, trees and stone together in landscape design.
  • Creating the successful landscape design and ecological restoration business, Urquhart & Hunt, together with her business partner Adam Hunt.
  • Adam and Lulu’s work on rewilding that led them to winning the Gold Medal at Chelsea Flower Show.

Particularly worthwhile is hearing Lulu’s perspective on community forest gardens, informed by journeys to India that brought her close to seeing the practical elements of a sacred relationship with land.

Lulu’s story is inspiring, whether you have your own garden, allotment or even window box, and learn how you too can make a difference by caring for Earth.
