Garden_lab 2015

Project with Assembly. G_L was a year long seasonal citizen science deep dive into the amazing Old Tidemill Wildlife Garden. At the time it was facing build plans that would completely wipe out the 25+ year mature garden. The aim of which was to show the social, environmental and economic value that such a site can hold. 

Populating a archive website that acted as herbarium it contained not just the plants, but the stories, memories, and interactions that a whole neighbourhood of humans and wildlife was having here.
