Vanessa M. Gilbert-2010-01-01-Cardinal Scholar (Ball State University)

TL;DRAbstract

The following comprehensive project examines the potential for urban residences to become self-sustaining and productive environments using a ¼ acre lot in Muncie, Indiana as an example. It explores how society today has grown further and further from nature, creating a gap that has resulted in the under utilization of the environment. Through this project and research I hope to reconnect humans to nature while creating more sustainable environments to live in, benefiting nature as well as the health, wealth, and happiness of people and their communities.
