The garden includes what is thought to be the only organic herb garden in York city centre, which grows ingredients used in the Treasurer’s House tearoom. “If you live in or around the city, have a back yard or window sill, then join us and find out how easily you can create your own supply of herbs for cooking, adding to a drink and many other uses,” said Mr Emerson. “You can buy herb plants grown organically, without the use of peat, on the day and soon have your own supply of mint, lavender, sage, basil, rosemary, plus some recipes to inspire you in the kitchen. “Visitors can sample food and drink made using herbs, watch gardening demonstrations and take away recipe sheets for inspiration. The event, sponsored by Rachel’s Organic, runs from 11am until 4. 30pm on Saturday and Sunday, and will be the first of a series of open days. The gardening team wants to hear from individuals or groups, including visitors with disabilities, who would be interested in using the space.

"This tells us that North America potentially could be the place of origin for this group of dinosaurs. "Kirkland says Falcarius likely was covered with shaggy, hair-like "proto-feathers," which may or may not have had a shaft like those found in bird feathers. No feathers were found with the Falcarius fossils. Feathers rarely are preserved, but "a number of its close relatives found in China had feathers [preserved by unusual lake sediments], so the presumption is this animal too was feathered," Sampson says.
