The Digital Dig is a major project to digitise, transcribe, map and uncover the horticultural history contained within the RHS’s collection of more than 28,000 plant nursery catalogues. The collection is a fascinating environmental and social history archive, tracking the changing face of gardening infrastructure over time. https://www.rhs.org.uk/education-lear...
As part of the Digital Dig project, the RHS worked with six ‘Digital Ambassadors’ aged 15-18 from the Museums Partnership Reading Youth Panel to create online content inspired by RHS nursery catalogues relating to their local area. Ambassadors received specialist digital skills training so that they could share stories they uncovered within the collection.
This video, created by the Ambassadors, looks at plant nursery seed catalogues and what they can tell us about everything from the history of printing technology to life during the Second World War.
The Digital Dig project is supported by National Lottery Heritage Fund.
