This announcement looks as though it is about the therapuetic benefits of spending time IN a garden ("therapuetic garden facilities" they are calling it) which would be much like Feng Shui I imagine, rather than gardening with medicinals as you suggest. (Actually there are some of us who are involved in commercial production of herbs and herbal medicines from field to consumer, it's called "herbalism" <grin> )<BR>
Just looking for some clarity here, as "gardening with medicinals" and "therapuetic design" would be entirely different except where aromatic character of living plants and/or the more illusive "plant spirit communication" health benefits are considered.<BR>
Best, Jennifer Chesworth<BR>
