This program will provide urban dwelling adolescent, adult and senior consumers of mental health services with opportunities for healing, recovery and skill building through increased access to nature, gardening and outdoor activities. A literature review was conducted in order to learn about the benefits of horticultural therapy for various populations including those who suffer from mental health issues. A search for potential funders was undertaken using the Internet and the Foundation Center's database. The Burpee Foundation was identified as the best fit for the program. Actual submission of this grant and/or funding for this program were not requirements for successful completion of this project.
