Queer Botany: Guided Walk

About the eventHow can botany be queered and how can queerness be botanical? Join Sixto-Juan Zavala, founder of Queer Botany, on a walk exploring connections between queerness and nature.

We will share stories about plants from folklore, science, and history.Queer Botany emerges from the theoretical lens of queer ecology, which brings together queer theory and eco-criticism.

The project aims to share marginalised perspectives and support more diverse representations in the environmental movement and outdoors.This event is a special collaboration between Waltham Forest Pride 2026, London Wildlife Trust, and Queer Botany celebrating Pride.This event is aimed at adults aged 18 and over.The walk will be fully outdoors so dress for the weather and there may be some gentle inclines so strong stout footwear is recommended.Further information will be sent out prior to the event.
