Our regular openings are back from Thursday 1st May!
Drop by every other Thursday to explore our garden and browse the botanical wonders of our historic library. It's a perfect opportunity to unwind and connect with plants, people, and stories rooted in South London’s botanical heritage.
You'll also get a behind the scenes look at our ongoing Herbarium cataloguing project, see how we care for and record centuries of plant specimens, and chat with the team bringing this hidden treasure to life.
No need to book, just pop in and say hello! Donations welcome.
Access needs: We welcome visitors who are disabled. Our building has steps at the entrances and up to the second floor which limits access for wheelchair users. Our garden is accessible for a mobility scooter. Please let us know if you have any other access needs by emaling info@slbi.org.uk or calling 020 8674 5787.
