Collective garden mapping and garden bike tour in Medellin

Gemeinsam mit Maria Cristina Moncayo, die Teil des Allmende-Kontor Gemeinschaftsgartens war und Javier Burgos von der Casa de la Cultura los Alcázares, ergab sich die Möglichkeit 2014 & 2015 eine kollektive Kartierung mit urbanen Gärtner*innen in Medellin zu machen. Ausgangspunkt der Kartierung war damals eine wundervolle gemeinsame Fahrradtour durch verschiedene Gärten der Zona 4 am Tag davor. Es ist sehr beeindruckend zu sehen wie das Red de Huerteros Medellín sich entwickelt: Das Manifest des Netzwerks ist inspirierend und auch die bis heute forgeführten Radtouren und Kombinationen von Kunst und Gärten die in Medellin gedeihen, wie AgroArte, Agroteca und Agrocleta empfehlen sich zur Nachahmung.
