Park & Learn: Intro




We are currently working on a research project on UBC campus called Park & Learn. It is an arts-based pedagogical food forest accessible to all bodies and movements, near the Reconciliation Pole, adjacent to the parking lot at Agronomy Road and Main Mall.

What will take shape and grow, will be in response to the environment, elements, conditions and people who might tend to the place.
Place as a fluid concept will be enacted, negotiated and understood through human and non-human narratives and experiences.
