Thanks Naomi! My passion lies in gardens for children, elderly, and those in need of healing. I would like to maintain and grow my knowledge base in these areas. Unfortunately in my current position, I have no outlet to express my ideas. I have designed children’s gardens, gardens for assisted living facilities, etc, but all on my own. Without g…[Read more]

Great to see examples of everyone’s work!

See the latest comment on the TLDBlog “Garden fragrance as an emotional memory trigger” for some great information about this subject, from Wendy who wrote her thesis on the subject. You can also link to her thesis, which I’ll be posting soon on the Therapeutic Landscapes Database.

Hi Naomi,
I guess I can put some pictures of gardens shown on confference with short description of the places and work on my site. There were initiatives started as civil initiatives and community gardens for example in Sarajevo (BiH) and now they are planning certificate programme for this part of Europe, what would be great. I can send Daniel…[Read more]

I won’t post the five pictures because they are really large but the season change in these is really good.

I like the onyx trees.

Chris, just saw your response to Katrina – thanks for the info! I’m behind with adding data to the TLD, but this is great information.

Hi Katrina, the best way to find out about horticulture therapy certificate programs, in the Bay Area or anywhere, is to contact the American Horticultural Therapy Association (http://www.ahta.org/). I know that Marni Barnes teaches a class on therapeutic landscape design at the UC Berkeley Extension, and there may be others as well. But for hort.…[Read more]

what blog…

I found this blog from a guy at squintopera. I haven’t looked at it much yet but
it seems pretty good.

Welcome, Chris and Marina! Chris, can’t wait to see your photos – will you post them here? Would also be happy to share on the TLDBlog, or elsewhere and of course we’ll want to add any sites to the Database that aren’t already there.

And Marina, tell us more about the conference, it sounds fascinating. I wonder if we can get trascripts, or if…[Read more]

Hi!

Theme was therapeutic gardens, horticultural therapy, landscapes with healing essences – my special reasarch theme. There was also guest from Washington University in Seattle, Daniel Winterbottom, great work in therapeutic landscape architecture. So, hear you…[Read more]

I have finally found a home! Hello group! Clare Cooper Marcus helped send me on a journey to thirteen therapeutic gardens and I hope to share my pictures and resources with everyone. We have an incredible honor as both landscape architects and care givers and the more we collaborate and share our work and research, the better care we’ll give to…[Read more]

I also like in the tutorial how he applied aging to the building concrete.

This is a pretty sweet plugin, much better than messing around with cutout maps
