SUMMARY:Seeding Our Stories: Greenhouse Reading Room
DESCRIPTION:a reading room nestled in the cozy nook of a greenhouse stocked with books & activities curated around themes in therapeutic horticulture.\n\n\nNestle into one of the books\, zines\, storytelling games\, artmaking prompts\, tarot and oracle decks\, or other self-guided activities we’ve curated each week to explore topics in eco-literacy\, community care\, gardening\, and all things horticulture as you sit surrounded by plants and seedlings in a sunny\, plant-filled nook in our working greenhouse.\n\n\n“Each one of us descends from people who have been in an intimate and reciprocal relationship with plants and seeds since the dawning of time.”\n– Rowen M. White; on For the Wild Podcast\n\n\nWe welcome you into this space with the belief that everyone should have access to a healing environment and the mental and physical health benefits that cultivating plants and being immersed in green spaces gives us. In this reading room engage with readings as well as prompts for self-guided plant activities that support community-building and belonging through creating a shared connection with the natural world. \nIn addition to a library of books covering such topics as ecological poetry and memoirs on deep ecology\, in this reading room\, you’ll also find materials that will equip you with ideas and skill-building designed to encourage sensory experience and physical activity and to deepen into your gardening\, propagating of house plants\, garden and nature inspired cooking and eating\, and crafts such as seasonal floral arrangements\, plant based self-care goods and tea blends. \nAll ages are welcome into this intergenrational space and our library is stocked each week for book and activities for children\, youth\, and adults. \n\n\nAccessibility: Our kitchen/classroom space is wheelchair accessible. With prior planning\, we can add a few small mats onto the pebbled ground of greenhouse to make a small wheel-chair accessible path. Our learning garden has grass paths\, and the entrance is through a gate with a small\, raised entrance. Our tables can be lowered/raised\, and we have several backless benches or stools. Our kitchen is in regular use\, and while we try to cook without peanuts\, much of our cookware is shared and we cannot guarantee a nut-free environment. We have a first aid kit\, and the closest AED is in another building several yards away. Drinking water is made available in refillable pitchers.\nOur closest bathrooms are a building away\, about a one-minute walk. A gender neutral bathroom is also available\, and this is accessible by key which you can request from staff. We are not a scent-free zone\, and because herbalism classes take place here\, cannot guarantee that the site will be clear of any essential oil smells. If you have needs not addressed here\, please reach out to Mallory Craig at mcraig@thehort.org.\nWhen inside the greenhouse and kitchen we will open our double-doors and windows to vent the space and encourage masking and social distancing when in more closed-in spaces.
