TV gardening expert Sarah Raven is to give two lecture workshops at East Kennett Manor, near Marlborough, on Tuesday, October 1.

Ms Raven, who appears on BBC's Gardeners' World, will present a lecture titled The Autumn Cutting Garden in which she describes all gardeners need to know about preparing, planting, maintaining and harvesting from an intensive mini-cutting garden.

On Wednesday, her lecture is called Grow, Cook, Eat a vegetable growing course on how gardeners can create their own greengrocer just outside their back door.

Both lectures run from 10.15am to 3.45pm and cost £75 each. There is a ten per cent discount for anyone who books two lecture workshops together.

A third lecture, Christmas Flower Arranging, takes place at Bowood, near Calne, on November 7.
