Graeae’s Words: “A gathering of gardeners and guardians take you through the memory of England’s “green and pleasant land” in a deconsecrated churchyard in the heart of Greenwich. While seedlings are tended, angels look down from the top of 4 metre sway poles, and an emotional story of love, loss and hope unfolds.”
