concept

The central theme of the project is “the garden” in all “existential, ecological, philosophical, social and cultural dimensions” . The location of the events is Wilm Weppelmann's allotment garden in an allotment garden in Münster. During the summer months June to September, this normal vegetable and herb garden is open for readings, lectures, discussions, presentations, small exhibitions and concerts. The lecture "Every garden is philosophy" by the philosopher Dr. Andreas Mussenbrock opened the first garden academy on June 7, 2006. The Free Garden Academy has been a registered association since April 17, 2007 and is also developing other garden cultural initiatives and events.
