Green Witchers: Tuesday 3 December at 19.00
| December’s meeting will be looking at poisonous plants. Do you know your edible Queen Anne’s Lace from your deadly hemlock? Which plants are poisonous to humans and which to animals? Is it the leaves, berries or flowers which pose a threat? If you’ve got a garden or an allotment: what should you avoid planting if you have pets? What should you plant to attract wildlife to your garden? Register for Green Witchers here |
