Fragrant Hanging Basket Outreach
The power of a garden to help restore individuals to health through restful and quieting views as well as mind impacting fragrance has been recognized since the beginning of civilization.
Gardening as a horticultural based therapy works through the ability of plants to engage and hold our interest. Gardening as a therapy also allows for individuals to receive health improving sunlight, fresh air while enjoying moderate exercise.
When applied in hospital or institutional settings, horticulture as a therapy allows for treatment goals to be met utilizing horticultural based activities. Our hanging baskets allow for patients to care for their own small garden, enjoying the natural predictability of nature, while demonstrating the ability to "change ones environment" while caring for these small garden spaces. |
