This project aims to improve mental & physical well-being for adults through gardening, nature-connection & time spent socialising in natural, peaceful surroundings.
Therapeutic gardening is the use of garden space to improve and build resilience in mental health; to increase physical activity; develop social skills and encourage a healthier diet.
Session days and times
Participants meet on a weekly basis on Tuesday afternoons 2-4:30 pm and Thursday mornings 10-12:30pm at The Oaks site in Elgin where they can take part in various gardening activities such as sowing seeds, growing veg, fruit trees care, learning about composting and harvesting vegetables to take home. There is also a chance to socialise during our tea break. In the winter, we will hold indoor sessions where participants can learn to cook delicious soups from our garden or try their hands at nature-based craft activities.
Who can participate?
This project is suitable for individuals with low to moderate mental health conditions, mild physical disabilities or individuals experiencing isolation or bereavement.
