Medicinal Plants in the Landscape: Catalysts for Restoration
April 17, 2013 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Presented by Todd Lynch, landscape architect.
Restoration in the landscape typically means ecological restoration, such as the restoration of coastline after Katrina, or human health restoration through practices like horticultural therapy. A central challenge to the landscape architect is how to get people into the landscape and deepen their connections to the world around them.
This talk will address the question, Can medicinal plants in the landscape be a means to restore not only macro-scale ecological systems, but also such micro-scale systems as our day-to-day health? Todd will share several projects that explore these questions and that feature medicinal plants as part of an overall design response.
