Becky Hindley

Becky spent 30 years working as an actor before following another creative path and founded Erda Botanicals.

Now based in the UK on the Lancashire/Cumbria border, she describes herself as a “borager”, foraging for botanical elements to create unique, nature-inspired pieces.

A collector of bark, moss, stones, branches and anything the landscape offers, Becky draws inspiration from the countryside around her.

She now holds workshops where she invites people to immerse themselves in nature and to
discover their own “way of seeing”, encouraging creativity, curiosity and a deeper connection to the
landscape.
