This is why in our gardens we will be proposing other artistic activities and practical workshops to the public on a regular basis.</p> <p>Our arts and handicraft workshops are taught with modern and easily accessible teaching techniques for a better understanding of the subject. The workshops are all garden-themed; plant-based cooking or perfume-making, as well as creating your own plant-based cosmetics. These creative activities are fun, practical and educational focused on gardens. We aim to give pragmatic uses to plants in daily life and increase environmental awareness of our heritage through these activities.</p> <div class="chapeau">Gardening - the power of gardening to change the lives of people touched by disability.</div> <p>The Cityculteurs have the ambition to create healing gardens in France; these gardens can provide a purposeful activity for someone coping with a difficult period in their life. In the US and the UK, horthitherapy has been common practice for a number of years. Gardening can help individuals in care to accomplish many things. It can help rebuild a person's strength after an accident or illness.</p> <p>This method has notably been recognised to benefit those with difficulty in communicating. We see gardens as a new way to communicate.</p> <p>Our initiatives aim to accompany traditional healthcare, whilst contributing to humanise the aesthetics of medical delivery centres.</p> <ul class="spip"><li>Hortitherapy is accepted as a valuable occupational tool for physical and psychiatric disorders by therapists.

Gardens are being seen as an activity for relaxation. Physical exercise, intellectual activity, social interaction; everything in the garden works together to encourage positive energies and they are no longer simply considered an ornamental space. There is a revival in allotments; new community gardens are now being created. These spaces will hopefully be witness to strengthened social interaction as well as bringing the satisfaction in growing one's own home produce. They will provide an added alternative for minimizing the effects of the increasing pollution of our towns and cities; a forerunner to a need for new lifestyles.</p> <p>This journey back to nature goes far beyond a short-term need for chlorophyll. Plants are shards of rebellion against our uprooted concreted and macadam world. The ecological benefits of creating green spaces are obvious, but the social, therapeutic and financial benefits are often ignored.</p> <p>From a historical perspective, contemporary urban living is a relatively new experience, and it is constantly evolving. <strong>Cityculteurs</strong> is a community that provides answers to the problems raised by city and town dwelling, in the form of gardening activities.</p></div> http://www.lescityculteurs.org/Legal-details http://www.lescityculteurs.org/Legal-details 2010-11-04T15:37:40Z text/html en Les Cityculteurs Ce site internet est la propriété de l'association LES CITYCULTEURS dont le siège social est situé au 22 rue Tronchet 75008 Paris.

They are referred to as ‘simple' because the monks, who were humble by vocation, created small square beds of herbs that were simple but wisely chosen, both as medicinal plants and as culinary condiments. Each small raised bed was marked out and surface cultivated. The gardening monks also grew all their own fruit and vegetables.</p> <p>Today, the abbey is no longer the neuralgic centre of civilization, the hub and heart beat of urban life are our towns and cities as a whole. Making it even more necessary to fight hard to make sure nature and the garden maintain their rightful place in theses urban jungles. Cityculteurs aim to protect our green spaces within our towns and cities as well as our lives by establishing gardening as a widespread activity thereby helping to lessen social isolation, to improve mental alertness and restore the natural benefits of nature and its rhythms</p></div>
