The Botany of Desire: A Plant's-Eye View of the World

Garden Visits: Visit a minimum of two “kinds” of gardens (a public garden, a friend or acquaintance’s garden, a community garden, your own garden, a radically different kind of garden).  As you visit these places, take notes about your observations and ask yourself, based on what you observe, “what a garden is” and “why we garden.”  Then write a 3-page informal narrative (basically a free write) that explains how what you saw helps you address those questions. The more detailed and informative your discussion, the more points you will receive.  Your task is to begin writing your thoughts about how to answer these questions.
