Join the RCP Garden team on 22 July for a delightful evening of tea tasting and
blending featuring ingredients grown in the RCP garden of medicinal plants. Led by
our expert gardeners create a blend to take home or give as a gift!
The evening will include an introduction by the RCP Museum to a selection of beautifully
handwritten family recipe books from the RCP collection that were used to share knowledge
about treatments and cures within communities in England, 1500-1800.
Discover the properties of herbs featured in the recipe books many of which are grown in the
RCP’s own Medicinal Garden. Taste a sample of teas created from these ingredients perfect
for different times of the day – from perking you up in the morning to a soothing blend at the
end of the day. Finally guided by our expert gardeners create your very own summer tea
blend to take home with you – or deliver as a unique gift.
