“What if we designed for all senses? Suppose for a moment, that sound, touch, and odor were treated as the equals of sight, and that emotion was as important as cognition?” (Malnar & Vodvarka). Sight has become the primary sense with which we experience our world, to the detriment of stimulation of the four other senses (Pallasmaa, 2005). Limited sensory stimuli in our daily lives deprive us of the complete experiential awareness available to us. By engaging all five senses, all persons, but particularly individuals with vision and hearing impairments can increase their knowledge of self and place. Adolescents with impaired sight and hearing senses are apt to place stronger emphasis on those senses with which they do receive information. Holbrook (1996) refers to “Inter-sensory Coordination” as the sharing of information from one sense to another which ultimately helps understanding and mapping of place. Garden environments can be especially stimulating through the tactility of t

Volume 13 Fall 2007 GrowingPeopleNews—GrowingPeopleNews G a r d e n e r s i n C o m m u n i t y D e v e l o p m e n t Program Highlights in 2007 1. More Gardens GICD has been searching out community gardens in the North Texas area. We have located 23, so far, scattered across 9 cities. GICD works regionally to promote community gardening and has made the most progress inside the city of Dallas. There are now 10 successful Dallas community gardens, and several more that are struggling to get started (see New Garden Notes on page 3). Five Dallas community gardens are fully associated within GICD’s network, and these work together to help provide training and support to bring about sustainable community greening projects across the region. 2. Community Gardening Education This past year GICD staff and volunteer gardeners from our 5 member community gardens made a major investment in education. Together we hosted garden tours, workshops, trainings, and volunteer workdays. Among th

Project GROW is sponsored by the California Department of Health Services. On a recent night at the San Leandro Shelter, a dozen children between the ages of two and fourteen worked planting vegetable seeds in the garden. Before beginning they had been asked to think about the ways plants and people are similar: “People and plants both need sun and water. ” “People and plants need to be protected when they’re little. ” “Sometimes they’re scared in new places. ” “They both grow. ” At the San Leandro Shelter for Women and Children, Project GROW has focused on children’s gardening and horticultural therapy. Because the shelter is urban – with an asphalt backyard – community volunte

Almost a generation has passed with some, but not enough, change to health care environmental design known to provide benefits to staff, patients and visitors. In the chapter “Environmental Factors Affecting Inpatient Stress in Acute Care Hospitals,” (Environmental Stress Gary Evans, ed. , 1982), Sally Ann Shumaker and Janet Reizenstein discuss key elements that we are still calling for today. These include control over one’s physical and psychological environment, social support, and interaction with nature. Given the increasing evidence for benefits of therapeutic gardens, why are more not b
