OUR MISSION
Our Mission is to help US Veterans heal through horticultural therapy. We believe in getting Veterans out of their heads and into the garden to enhance their overall health. Veterans working outside with the earth to create a sustainable lifestyle for them and their families is the positive impact we desire to make.
Many studies have shown the healing benefits of gardening (Sources: Harvard Medical School, Ohio State University). We take that one step further and add the community aspect specifically for veterans. Our first in person Community Garden will be opening in the Fall. Currently, our Seeds and Equipment Program sends out veteran care packages on a monthly basis. Our Mentorship Program is starting this August. This program will help veterans build the confidence they need to become self-sustaining gardeners.
We believe in empowering veterans to help themselves, reminding them of their strength and capability, and encouraging them to pay it forward to fellow veterans. Together, we can uplift one veteran at a time.
