Poetry and drawing
As part of a multi-species artistic expression event, Back from the Brink, poet Ella Frears and artist Ben Sanderson led an informal workshop at the Eden Project to facilitate a creative, drop-in event learning about the beautiful Lesser Butterfly Orchid - drawing and writing poems about them!
This stunning and rare species can be found in Devon and Cornwall, so local people were invited to come along to a beautiful setting and learn about the rare wildlife near them!
