Explore&More - Cowbridge Physic Garden

In 2004, a group of volunteers had the vision to create the Physic Garden that you can explore today. Many thanks to the middle aged Monks! Savour the aroma of sage, rosemary, mint and thyme as you wonder through the Physic Garden in the heart of Cowbridge, or settle on the lawn for a leisurely picnic lunch. And while you do, thank the monasteries of the middle ages for the many medicinal remedies made from the plants around you. Plants with healing properties were grown in the infirmary garden of monasteries and used to prepare ointments, cordials, infusions and purgatives for the treatment of the monks themselves and the local people in the vicinity. Today, we still rely on the curative properties of plants in over 50% of our medicines and many of these can be found in the Cowbridge Physic Garden. Did you know? The garden was officially opened by HRH the Duchess of Cornwall on June 26th 2008. With a keen interest in plants and gardening, the Duchess of Cornwall graciously agreed to become patron of Cowbridge Physic Garden. Tranquility, beauty, medicinal value and a royal connection, all in one garden...do you want to Explore, and More?...
