Heligan’s Head of Gardens and Estate Alasdair Moore is joined by guests Andrew Omerod, Andy Wilson, Paul Doidge, Yoko Briggs and Louis Duddridge. It’s High Summer at Heligan, and time for a solstice celebration. We discuss Emmer Wheat and its role as the foundation of human experience, agriculture, civilisation but also colonialism, check in on Heligan’s ongoing glass-house restoration, and discover the joys of summer found in the Flower Garden and Pig Palace alike.
