Fabulous to see residents enjoying the garden @BoltonClarke #therapeuticgardening
Gardening abounds at #BoltonClarke communities this week, & residents of Fairview residential #agedcare community, Pinjarra Hills have been enjoying their weekly #gardening club. They have found #joy #planting succulents in their raised garden beds & decorating them with pebbles.
I've been assisting a community group to create a bush tucker #garden to enjoy cooking & propagating #bushfoods to share within the community. These plants have delicious flavours & grow well in most climates throughout Australia. #therapeuticgardening #soiltosupper #bushtucker

Great article by @NikiJRP on accessible gardening and how we can encourage disabled people to get out in the garden #gardening #accessibility #gardentherapy
@NikiJRP's disability doesn't stop her from doing what she loves: gardening. However, she's on a mission to make people aware of accessibility in gardening, and how a little consideration from brands can help change people's lives: mrplantgeek.com/2019/04/04/a…
