Fulham Palace Gardens
In celebration of trees and woodland, we are supporting London Tree Week (27 May to 4 June), with the help of the Mayor of London.
Tall Tree Stories Thursday 1 June 3.00pm-4.00pm Fulham Palace Gardens – meet on the lawn outside the cafe
Fun for the family, but more so for children. You get to hear about trees, some truths, some fibs, and have fun making up tall stories about them too.
Everyone has heard of an ‘old wive’s tale’ or two about a tree – here’s your chance to test your wits and your story telling powers – to discover which stories are tree or false?
Indian bean tree by P Coles
Fulham Palace Gardens is home to a variety of trees including London’s oldest Holm oak, black mulberry, and the Indian Bean tree to just name three species.
