Flower Power and Garden Therapy


This morning while trying to avoid that whole hacking up a lung thing, I found the Canadian Horticultural Therapy Association

It's for seniors, disabled people and likely anyone sicker than just the common cold to get together and feel better through gardening. It's a great idea. Puttering around in the garden does make you feel better. They key is puttering rather than taking on the whole care and maintenace for all of it. That's a job. We're just looking at garden therapy, that's a hobby.

There is a job posted for a garden therapist. I'm sending that one to my sister. Maybe she'll consider that as another career option since she isn't really keen on being a "mouth janitor" any more.
