The presence of learning gardens in Spain is growing, and the current scenario
is highly diverse in relation to issues such as participatory models or purposes,
among others. In the context of the 1st National Meeting on organic learning
gardens, we convened eight expert practitioners in a focus group. Their discourse
was analyzed through content analysis, after which four categories were selected
for co-occurrence analyses. The most important questions for university garden-
based practitioners in the country are presented, related to actors involved,
functions that gardens fulfill, strengths of these educational resources, and
requirements for their consolidation.
