Project name: Chopin Cultivates the City
Project owner: Terres Urbaines
Site under installation…
Terres Urbaines aims to develop a nursery of aromatic and medicinal plants and small fruits on the rooftop of the Frédéric Chopin Conservatory. The plants produced will be sold to the shared gardens of the association’s network as well as to specialized shops in the district (florists, organic stores). Part of the production will also be processed, partly on this site, into dried herbs, macerates, and candles. The association will also organize workshops within partner organizations located in the district, as well as workshops and sales at the base of buildings for local residents.
