Our community garden is a place where people who enjoy gardening come together to work the soil and share their knowledge and experience with other gardeners. Our gardeners include UCI students, faculty, staff, and members from the community. Originally established in 1985, the garden has been located near three different UCI student housing complexes, most recently Arroyo Vista Housing. In June 2008 the garden was relocated to a new site next to Palo Verde Graduate Student Housing. The club name was changed to Anthill Village Community Garden.

The purpose of this organization is to oversee the use and management of the land assigned
to the Anthill Village Community Garden by the University.

Mission
The Scribe provides a creative space for members of the UCI student body and community to discuss their experiences in medicine, whether that be as an aspiring healthcare provider, current patient, or practicing health professional.

Our publication takes inspiration from the growing field of narrative medicine. This crossroads between medicine and the humanities challenges healthcare professionals to reflect upon their experiences through the creation of humanities-based work such as writing, visual art, and even music. However, it is not limited to only healthcare professionals, and in fact encourages expression from patients and other members of the health community. It gives everyone an opportunity to tell their medical story, and by extension listen to those of others.

With this in mind, we hope to collect the many stories of UCI's health community on this blog and facilitate discussion about problems, advances, and relevant ideas in the medical field. More than this, we hope to contribute to the growing narrative medicine conversation through our work. We encourage you–our club members, fellow students, or curious readers–to join in the conversation by submitting your own work or simply providing commentary on what we feature. Finally, we hope this blog broadens your perspective on medicine through the human stories that it offers.
