It is our hope that members of the community can utilize our garden space to improve their mental wellness!
Each workshop in the garden series will include seasonally relevant gardening activities, discussions, mindfulness activities, and volunteering hours that should be accessible to most levels of ability. This series is not specific to eating disorders and is open to people anywhere on the mental health spectrum. However, the series aims to improve relationships with food and our own bodies.
Please dress appropriately in layers, wear sunscreen, and come prepared to get your hands dirty!
