About this experience
Leave the manicured lawns of public parks and dive into the strictly regulated but personal world of the German allotment garden. Learn how a 19th-century medical experiment developed into an important survival mechanism for miners in the smog-plagued Ruhr area. Discover the paradox of allotment gardens: strict rules about hedge heights and canopy sizes created a democratic refuge that survived wars, welcomed migrant families, and triggered a modern eco-renaissance.
