Urban Agriculture on the Rooftop Michelle Nowak Cornell University Senior Honors Thesis May 2004 The Rossetties liked to cultivate pharmaceutical plants up on the roof, a few of them hardy enough to survive fogs and frosts, but most returning as fragments of peculiar alkaloids, to rooftop earth, along with manure from a trio of prize Wessex Saddleback sows quartered there by Throp’s successor, and dead leaves off many decorative trees transplanted to the roof by later tenants, and the odd unstomachable meal thrown or vomited there by this or that sensitive epicurean – all got scumbled together, eventually, by the knives of the seasons, to an impasto, feet thick, of unbelievable black topsoil in which anything could grow, not the least being bananas. Pirate, driven to despair by the wartime banana shortage, decided to build a glass hothouse on the roof, and persuade a friend who flew the Rio-to-Ascension-to-Fort-Lamy run to pinch him a sapling banana tree or two, in exchange for a Germ

Printed in the Netherlands CHAPTER 12 CARE FARMS AND CARE GARDENS Horticulture as therapy in the UK JOE SEMPIK AND JO ALDRIDGE Centre for Child and Family Research, Loughborough University, Leicestershire, LE11 3TU, UK Abstract. This paper describes the use of Social and Therapeutic Horticulture (STH) for vulnerable people in the UK. Around 20,000 clients attend STH ‘projects’ each week. Projects provide activities for people with mental health problems, learning difficulties, physical disabilities, black and ethnic minorities and many other vulnerabilities. The benefits of attending projects include a structured routine and the opportunity for social contact. The natural, outdoor setting is particularly valued and may act as a restorative environment within the context of environmental psychology.

www. lomavistafarm. org – The Greenhouse The Greenhouse Rita’s Monthly Gardening Tip! January 2009 – Gardening is for the Birds! January 2009 – Gardening is for the Birds! Wild birds in the garden and yard provide a natural form of pest control and offer endless beauty and entertainment. This is a great time of year to learn to identify a few new birds. Children will hold on to fond memories of birds feeding, nesting and bathing in their own yard. During the cold winter months, these beneficial creatures have a greater need for food and shelter. Different birds prefer different foods, but foods with higher fat content during the winter will make a nice meal for many. A great activity for children is to spread peanut butter on a pine cone, roll it in bird seeds and hang from a tree branch where you can watch the birds enjoy your gift. Hummingbirds are in this area year round, so a hummingbird feeder may entice the little beauties. Birds will be encouraged to come to your yard if

1 THE POWERFUL LINK BETWEEN CONSERVING LAND AND PRESERVING HEALTH By Howard Frumkin and Richard Louv For the Land Trust Alliance Special Anniversary Report, 2007 Howard Frumkin, M. D. , Dr. P. H. , is Director of the National Center for Environmental Health /Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Richard Louv is the author of “Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder” and chairman of the Children & Nature Network (www. cnaturenet. org). Public health professionals know that protecting watersheds is one of the best ways to assure clean, safe drinking water — so protecting the sources of clean water protects public health. Clean air is also part of a healthy, wholesome environment. Air pollutants contribute to cardiovascular disease, respiratory disease, and allergies. Therefore, protecting air quality is protecting public health. What about land? Do people benefit from parks and green spaces? W

EM 8500 June 1992 M A K I N G G A R D E N I N G E A S I E R E. Throckmorton and J. Powell Gardening Adaptations for People with Gripping and Lifting Problems Arthritis, neurological problems, waning strength, and other conditions can cause problems with grip, grasp, or lifting. These problems can be frustrating for the gardener. Pots are heavy and clumsy; tools don’t fit the problem hand, and moving potted plants can be challenging. Here are some tips to help gardeners better deal with these problems. Pick the Best Container Select containers that will meet the needs of the plants you plan to grow. Plants need root space, drainage facilities, a porous, fertile soil mix, and support. Put Your Containers on a Diet Standard clay pots, which provide good drainage and breathing ability, are heavy. If weight is a problem, use plastic flower pots or other plastic containers. Small plants can be grown in yogurt or cottage cheese containers. Larger plants can be planted in plastic bu
