The Center Adult Day Services
Our Therapeutic Gardening Program

Spending time outside in a garden has been shown to positively affect a person’s emotions and improve their sense of well-being. Our gardens are the focus of general activities and our specialized horticultural program. They meet the sensory needs of our participants by allowing them to experience the sights and smells of the outdoors in a safe setting.
