Growing out of last year’s the performative interventions;  the Nu-Urban Gardeners propose to facilitate a series of food-orientated interventions entitled ‘Cabbages and Kings’. This Surrealistic intervention will take the form of a competition based loosely on TV and Radio panel shows. The title is inspired by Lewis Caroll and the idea by the tradition of ‘king/queen and/or fool for a day’, which informs folkloric celebrations such as the ‘Betsy’ in Molly Dancing (the most well-known folkloric tradition of the Fens), the Spalding Tulip Queens, The Rainbow Summer Solstice Festival (Tydd St Mary) and the Holbeach Food Festival.

The Nu-Urban Gardeners will be popping up around Boston Borough and South Holland throughout this week, check out the itinerary below for times and locations of each of these events, we look forward to seeing you there!
