Horticulure therapy is the use of plants and gardens for human healing and rehabilitation. In the past eight years, EYA youth have worked with residents in the downtown eastside (Carnegie Centre, Portland Hotel, Covenant House) on several greening initiatives such as: rooftop gardens, medicinal plant workshops, hanging baskets, plant and seed giveaways, and composting demonstrations. Our goal is to connect residents with plants, bringing a sense of health, pride, and spirit to those who have little access to nature.
