Project Narrative

An urban oasis is created.

It extends an invitation to its immediate surroundings and much further.

As friendly as it may be with its familiar exterior, it holds much more than the familiar.

On open space both physically and visually.

Light enters—whether it be direct, diffused or scattered; or it does not.

Shaded by rich greens fed by trickling water.

You pass by and/or linger;

an urban oasis is created.

Mission Garden, Food, Culture, History | Lecture by Alyce Sadongei and Efren Martinez

This presentation explores the Tucson Mission Garden's history and the agricultural traditions of the many cultures that have farmed this land over time, and introduces the garden’s newer plots. Sadongei and Martinez discuss the challenges of growing food as Tucson’s seasons become hotter and drier, offering lessons that connect history, culture, and the future of sustainable food systems in the desert Southwest.

CAPLA Students Collaborate with Community Gardens of Tucson

Last spring, CAPLA students partnered with Community Gardens of Tucson to explore new possibilities for the Mary Meredith Community Garden. Led by Architecture Lecturer Chris Tucker, students in the BA.DAP program’s Spatial Design Studio developed design proposals for the garden’s school-side grounds, considering how the space could support children’s outdoor experiences and the surrounding ecosystem.
