Have a spice day out

WE don’t think twice about the peppermill on our dining table or the vanilla in our ice-cream, but the power of some plants to colour, flavour, and preserve makes them worth more than their weight in gold. 

This summer (May 23-September 6), The Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, London, will explore the world of spices … from the distant lands in which they grow to the botanists authenticating them at Kew for hundreds of years, their stories will be told through a programme featuring banquets, interactive installations, and exhibitions.
