Young and old, we met Saturday to stroll around the town of Colombes. Our tour began with the Garden of Eden, camouflaged by the social center and the fences, where we could admire the multitude of plants and fruit trees that will delight the inhabitants during the summer. Crossing to the other side of the railway, we stopped near the stadium, the Wild Gardens of Audra. There, we had a little lesson on shared gardens: we have identified some types of seedlings, learned some gardening techniques and tricks of craft. Then we returned to the Michelet Garden.Despite the rather long journey, the children have not lost their enthusiasm and have built castles with stones found on site.
Beyond the discovery of these gardens, the stroll was a moment of exchange of impressions, memories and dreams for everyone. By moving, we traced different stories about the gardens, the inhabitants of Colombes, buildings, etc.. Gradually, different people took part in the discussion, with some interesting observations but also with important suggestions that can complete the project R-Urban. The garden is being built from its inhabitants.
