Friars and Flora - Recreating the Franciscan Gardens in Canterbury. Sarah Morgan, Chair of the Society of Garden Designers, a local garden designer based in Hernhill, will be sharing the journey of the last 21 years researching, designing and planting the Franciscan Gardens in Canterbury that are in the process of restoration and to be opened to the public this year. The gardens owned by Eastbridge Hospital cover the site where the fist Franciscan missionaries arrived and settled in Britain in 1224. The gardens aim to reflect the meditative way of life, the respect of nature and the plants the Franciscans would have used. More recent activities of horticultural history are also reflected in the gardens.
