Relax, Renew, Garden


Every spring our green-thumbed residents are itching for some outdoor horticultural therapy. They enjoy getting out in the sunshine, cultivating our gardens and filling them with beautiful flowers and delicious vegetables. Research suggests that garden therapy can help you to relax, reduce stress, alleviate depression and accelerate rehabilitation in a variety of instances. It also has physical benefits like strengthening muscles and helping with dexterity, just to mention a couple. What a beautiful therapy that brings peace and renewal to not only the gardener but also the observer.
