Lunchbox Talk: Therapeutic Horticulture - A Gateway to Healing & Connection with the Natural World

With Emilee Weaver, NCBG Therapeutic Horticulture Program Manager
Who would you be and how would you be affected if you completely lost or had minimal ability to connect with the natural world physically, cognitively, or emotionally? How would it feel to live in a sterile institution, a hospital bed, or a body or mind that confines you to your own home or thoughts? We are all just an accident, illness, or a few years of the aging process away from being faced with these possibilities and millions of people are already coping with this experience every day. TH is the professionally facilitated gateway that enables and empowers those who desire a connection with Nature to regain access and function within natural environments.
