Talk: Why People Need Plants - Eastbourne (16/01/25)

Eastbourne Regional Group Event

Sarah Mckenzie will be telling us ‘WHY PEOPLE NEED PLANTS’…Did you know that hemp is used in the body panels of cars? That charcoal from cork bark is used in the manufacture of dynamite? That you can make cloth finer than silk from pineapple fibres? We discover how plants are indispensable to life on Earth and meet two people who revolutionised the food we eat today.

The talk will be in the Victoria Baptist Church, Eldon Road, Eastbourne, BN21 1UE, starting at 7.30pm, where there is a large, free, car park (the talk will not be recorded or broadcast online).
