Pollinator Garden

ROLE: Landscape designer in collaboration with Maria-Franca Dekkers ORGANIZED BY: Elike Wijnheijmer, WUR LOCATION: The Field: Leren en Delen, Wageningen STATUS: Under construction

Maria-Franca and I took the vague existing idea of creating a flower garden on The [Student Farm] Field west of Wageningen University (shown above) and decided to pursue the project. Due to the neglect of that portion of The Field, we gained support from our colleagues and the from university to realize it. This garden is for the public to enjoy, for the pollinators to feed on, and for us to experiment. We have a small budget and a number of limitations, which means we are positively challenged and it is a pleasure to apply academic learning into practice.
