25 years ago the Montreal Botanical Garden true to its mission for education and its social role of illustrating different cultural interpretations of the human - nature relationship set out to build a Chinese garden. This project was born out of a friendship and a shared passion for domesticated nature, would prove to be a unique and decisive adventure for the whole team and especially for our presenter who was then a novice project manager. Pierre Deschênes looks back on this experience and emphasizes the importance of the Sponsor's role. |
