Virtual Horticultural Therapy: Time to walk the grounds again

Because of COVID-19, I have had to create on-line versions of classes for my horticultural therapy clients. This particular video is for those who use the services of Ann’s Place, a not-for-profit cancer support facility I work for.  I walked (virtually)  many of them through the gardens at Ann’s Place a little while back, but so much has changed! Some bulbs have come and gone and new flowers are perking up everyday. The hops are climbing and the wisteria is in bloom. And those of you who know me understand that walking the grounds is something we do a lot in our horticultural therapy classes.

After all the gardens are designed for clients and their pleasure by attempting to tickle all of their senses. The gardens are looking great but they are lonely as they miss interacting closely with their clients as do all of us here at Ann’s Place. But you don’t have to stay away from the gardens and the plants that inhabit them. Perhaps I can coax some of you into visiting Ann’s Place if you are in the area.

Be well and safe and hope to see you all in the near future.
