Therapeutic Horticulture ~ Healing Garden Design

Looking for guidance on creating a healing garden for your home or workplace?
Interested in making small (or significant) changes to your yard that will support you and your loved ones AND our native birds, pollinators, et al.? Wishing you could grow some medicinal and culinary herbs in a sunny spot indoors? Hoping to create a nurturing outdoor environment to support your students, clients, patients, (grand)kids or greater community? Want to grow your own nutritious salad or relaxing nighttime tea, but feeling unsure how to get started?

Starting a new project like this can feel intimiding and confusing - even with the abundance of resources available online. This TH Healing Garden Design provides you with the specific information and ideas you need to create impactful first (and second) steps for cultivating your healing garden. Please Note: this is NOT a comprehensive landscape design. I want to provide you with an accessible (in terms of time & financial commitment) AND achievable garden, which may grow as one part of your broader landscape.

  • A Seasonal activity guide to help you engage with your healing garden year-round

  • Garden management recommendations (focused on organic, Integrated-Pest-Management, and pollinator-friendly practices)
