Rough Trade Books x Garden Museum: Enjoying Wild Herbs
Enjoying Wild Herbs: A Seasonal Guide With Hackney Herbal | By Nat Mady and Catmouse
The idea of ‘the garden’ is a complicated, curious thing. They loom large in the imagination—a locus of desire, aspiration, colonisation, care, effort, property, land and ownership, loss and literature.
Rough Trade Books partnered with the Garden Museum to create a set of pamphlets examining all of these ideas and more, with a group of writers and gardeners generating new work inspired in some way by our notions of all things green and pleasant, or perhaps less so.
Has there ever been so much rich thought around the radical potential of gardening, with so much urgency surrounding how we maintain our little bits of earth, of the meaning that plants carry?
Enjoying Wild Herbs: A Seasonal Guide brings Hackney Herbal’s Nat Mady and artist Catmouse together to introduce the wonderful world of herbs.
Asking important questions about the nature of public and private space, of how we live alongside plants, how we use them, how we gather them, this is a treatise on how foraging and the knowledge that underpins it can be a radical act—an act that informs much of our attitude to the natural world, to the food we eat and to how we value the multitudinous life that surrounds us.
