SUMMARY:Global Philosophy: A Brief Introduction to Jainism and Buddhism

SUMMARY:Adventure in the Andes:  Life Cycle biodiversity bike ride
DESCRIPTION:Our next Library talk comes from former university lecturer turned eco-adventurer\, Kate Rawles. Kate cycled the length of South America on a bike made of bamboo from the Eden Project she built herself. En route she explored biodiversity: what it is\, what’s happening to it and why losing it amounts to as great a threat as climate change. Join us to hear about the brilliant and brave activists Kate met; the highs and lows of the journey; and above all\, what we can all do. \nHer talk will be taking place in the Reading Room on Wednesday 11th October at 2pm. Tickets are allocated by a ballot system. Please email enquiries@morrablibrary.org.uk or call 01736 364474 to be entered into the ballot for a ticket. The ballot closes on Monday 2nd October. \nEntry to this event is free but donations are welcomed to help support Morrab Library (suggested £5). Refreshments will be provided after the talk.

SUMMARY:EMBROIDER A BEE
DESCRIPTION:Vicks Harrison started the Embroidered Bees Project in 2019 to raise awareness of the loss of biodiversity. The project will create a huge art quilt to help people develop their embroidery skills and learn more about the nearly 300 kinds of bees we have in this country and. It is a long term project and it is hoped that the final artwork will be exhibited to raise donations for wildlife projects. \nThis workshop will be an opportunity to produce embroidered bees to be added to the project. Complete beginners are very welcome. \nMore detail about the project is contained in two videos\n1) is a lovely introduction https://vimeo.com/724988781/f27d4ca421\n2) is a how to video https://vimeo.com/766141264/365f9de6db \nPlease bring a small hoop and a needle\, and any embroidery threads and/or cream or white fabric that you have. Old linen napkins and tablecloths are great. This is an unfunded project but Vicks does have a few materials. If you have any embroidery thread\, a needle and scissors that would be very helpful – otherwise just book and turn up \nPlease pay what you can – we suggest £3 to £5. Places are limited and booking is essential so please email Vickyvicks@btinternet.com or text 07834287562 to book a place.

SUMMARY:Pillas: Our forgotten grain - a talk by Harriet Gendall
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n\n\n“Pillas”—wrote Morton Nance in 1930— “sometimes called “pill-corn” or “naked oats\, […] smaller than oats and without husk\, was formerly a common crop in Cornwall\, but seems now to have become quite extinct.” In earlier centuries\, adventurers and botanists described this intriguing grain as cultivated in abundance near Land’s End\, where it thrived on marginal soils. It made a hearty porridge known as ‘pillas-gerts’ and was used to fatten pigs and calves\, while thatching-rope and bonnets were woven from its fine straw. But by the mid-nineteenth century it was gone from Cornish fields. \nThis year—for the first time in over 150 years—pillas is being harvested in Penwith.  Its remarkable survival in seedbanks has enabled ethnobotanical researcher Harriet Gendall to explore its reintroduction\, in partnership with local farmers and growers.  \nJoin us in hearing about her journey with pillas\, as well as it’s forgotten history and complex entanglement with Cornish identity—including a fascinating twist involving Morrab’s very own Head Gardener William Watson (1929-1951). \nEntry to the talk is by ballot – please email enquiries@morrablibrary.org.uk or call 01736 364474 by Monday 4th September to enter. We will let you know if you have been successful or not. \nWe ask for a £5 donation on entry to help support the library. Refreshments will be served after the talk.
