Botanic Gardens and Human Survival?

March 31, 2015 by Julia Brine Leave a Comment

Duncan and I recently attended the New England Wild Flower Society’s gala Founder’s Dinner, honoring Dr. Paul Smith, Secretary General, Botanic Gardens Conservation International.

Dr. Paul Smith

Dr. Smith was awarded their 2015 Founder’s Medal for his exceptional achievements as Head of the Millennium Seed Bank, Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew. His compelling talk was about plant diversity and human survival. Dr. Smith highlighted the role botanical gardens play internationally in preserving seed for the future.
