Therapeutic Gardening… for health & wellbeing
“Therapeutic Gardening is a process of using plants and gardening activities to promote health and wellbeing of people’s mind, body and spirit”
At Soil to Supper we believe that everyone of all ages and abilities needs a connection with nature and to experience a sense of joy and the health benefits gained from gardening activities and fresh food.
“Gardening as therapy has been used for years to cultivate health and wellbeing in people with disabilities, illnesses, diseases, the young, the elderly and people recovering from health issues.
I am blessed to share my passion for gardening, my skills and knowledge in Horticulture and Therapeutic Horticulture to provide support to individuals and organisations to create wellness throughout the community.”
