Legacy Garden

Canada

The iconic image of the Canadian wilderness can still be very relevant in Canada’s urban environment. We propose to start building Legacy Gardens throughout the country, bringing the much adored wilderness into the heart of communities. The gardens show the vast diversity of Canadian landscape, the quality of current Canadian landscape architecture and can contribute to issues of clean air and water storage. But most of all, they are built to leave a legacy and show through the medium of the garden that society, just like a garden, needs to be maintained and cared for.
