UC Center for Cultural Landscapes
History Grows Here
The Center for Cultural Landscapes promotes the study, stewardship, and interpretation of cultural landscapes—natural spaces shaped by human presence and care—and their connections to health, wellbeing, and community life.
Our mission is to support applied research in history, plant humanities, and health humanities through projects that benefit students, educators, and communities.
We aim to foster forms of knowledge gained through direct engagement with places and living systems. By combining scholarly inquiry with hands-on practice, the Center creates opportunities to learn through making, cultivating, stewarding, and experiencing landscapes.
