TALKS
We have given a number of illustrated talks and slideshows and regularly update the content to include not just garden moths and butterflies, but other aspects of running a productive and attractive garden that also encourages biodiversity. We currently use HD digital equipment to give high quality image projection.
The talks/video presentation which we have given this year is entitled 'The Botany of Desire' and reflects on the advantages of encouraging insects and other wildlife into the garden. It was filmed with the same camera which Julian used to make a film 'Epiphany In Translation' which won best European Documentary at this year's SBFF, and lasts about 40 minutes.
If you are part of a group or organisation that might be interested in arranging for us to come and give one of our talks please contact us by emailing thegardenimpressionists@gmail.com or telephone us on 01558 685119
Groups we have given talks to recently include: Llandyssul Gardening Weekend, Newquay Gardening Club,Cothi Gardening Club and Lechryd Gardening Club.
