  ABSTRACT: The effects of horticultural activity have been studied primarily for the elderly, but few studies have been conducted for postpartum women. This study asked postpartum women to respond in an open-ended format about how the horticultural activity made them feel and used text mining to extract their feelings. The results of the co-occurrence network showed that the free descriptions before the horticultural activity were grouped into word linkages such as “horticultural activity” and “feeling of touching the soil” and “visual experience of plants”. However, after the horticultural activity, the free descriptions were grouped into word linkages such as “relating to flowers” and “emotional experience through plants”. As this study was exploratory and did not set a sample size, it needs to be examined with a larger sample in the future.
