However, the accelerated deforestation in the region, where there is a natural occurrence of several medicinal species, requires rapid action to rescue, conserve and study these vegetables. In this way, the installation of plant gardens associated with the use of a booklet, can contribute significantly to studies in several areas of knowledge. In this perspective, the present work aims to create a vegetable garden composed of medicinal plants and a booklet about them in the pharmacy course at UFPA, in order to subsidize research, teaching and extension for this and other undergraduate courses. The total of 42 species of plants were considered medicinal for the creation of the vegetable garden. The plants were collected and taken for identification at the IAN herbarium (Embrapa Amazônia Oriental), all materials were photographed and inserted in the vegetable garden.

For the validation of the booklet, the product was sent to researchers and teachers for evaluation and suggestions. Thus, the medicinal plant garden was created with a total of 42 species, at UFPA, in an area of 40m x 20m. For the validation of this tool, 46 students who participated in the course were interviewed with the presence of six institutions: UFPA, UFRA, IFPA, UNAMA, COSMOPOLITA and ESAMAZ. The courses represented were: Pharmacy (38 students), Forest Engineering (3), Nursing (3) and the Technical Course in Environment (2), the research confirmed the students' interest in a space like the garden, ...
