Who We Are
The UC Botanical Garden is a non-profit research garden and museum for the University of California at Berkeley, having a notably diverse plant collection including many rare and endangered plants. Established in 1890, the Garden, which is open to the public year round, has over 13,000 different kinds of plants from around the world, cultivated by region in naturalistic landscapes over its 34 acres.
History
A small garden of economic plants was established on the Berkeley campus on the site currently occupied by Moffit Library in the 1870’s by Dr. Eugene W. Hilgard (1833-1916), founding Dean of Agriculture . The University of California Botanical Garden was formally established in 1890 by E. L. Greene, the first chairman of the Department of Botany, to form a living collection of the native trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants of the State of California, with the intent to gather in as rapidly as possible those of the neighboring states of the Pacific Coast. Within two years the collection numbered 600 species. In the following decade it grew to 1500, but then began to expand both its scope and collection to encompass plants from all continents and about 10,000 species.
The original official Garden was located near Haviland Hall on the north side of campus centered around a large glass conservatory modeled after the London Crystal Palace .
Operation Smile Vs. Children of OUR WORLD:
Why is it that ONLY children in the developing countries, or the least developed countries, or The Third World countries are The Victims requiring Cleft lip surgery , and what does UNICEF do all all day, all year round for, decades and decades. Children in Canada are victims too of another sort, they have cancer, and mental illness, and induced retardation, physical, mental, social and will never reach their true potential thanks to the Pharma Giants and Medical, and Legal Profession. And Toronto Sick Kids is such a Big Business and the Executives are all earning $100,000/- to 500,000/- from the misery, misfortune, and suffering of their fellow community members and the money's are paid by the PUBLIC through Revenue, and Taxation, and Levies and Customs and Duties.
It is unimaginable if Doctors became bankrupt, and homeless, and if lawyers had to beg on the streets for food and had to sleep on the streets and in the parks, or if bankers had to go to food banks and wear used clothes.
This HYPOCRISY is such a shame for HUMANITY and a shame for the Greedy and Thieving INTELLECTUALS and PROFESSIONALS !
Some odd scans from some colour 35mm films developed in b/w chems. Its from a mix of cheap kodak and fuji film. I need to keep the developer warmer but I still like the results.
Washington Park is in fact an area that just had not been developed, it is hilly, and wooded; trails had been marked out that crisscrossed it. It was hot, and I had no water; but I was not worried, it promised to be a walk of just over a mile. The trail just petered out, having crossed some more marked and unmarked trails. I set off in what I though was the right direction. Luckily, I got it 180 degrees wrong. Did I say lucky? After walking down through a thick wood, I came to a road, and headed to where I though the garden lay. I came to a guy having a smoke on his Harley parked on the side of the road; I asked him if I was going the right way. He told me I had gone in a large circle, and was right near the entrance to the zoo, almost back at the tram station. The garden was a mile and half down the road; I tightened my back pack, and set off again. It was an easy walk, if you dodged the traffic. Maybe walking beside the road was not such a good idea.
