About the Venue:
Limekiln Farm has been developed since garden owner, Joan Hester, retired 11 years ago, with new planting every year. It’s a peaceful location with a charm of antiquity that still persists.
About the Garden Owner:
Joan is a retired anaesthetist who developed an interest in substances from plants that are used in medicine today.
