Veterans and Horticultural Healing Program

Veterans will have the opportunity to grow their abilities and their own food through a new horticultural healing program.




Started by Greenleaf, Urban Gardening and Horticultural Healing, the program will give clients hands on vocational training that combines rehabilitation, healing and allows clients to create a food garden.




Holly Chaille and Sheila Hudson have joined forces to create the new program. The idea is to help veterans who are challenged by physical and emotional challenges such as PTSD. Chaille said horticultural therapy can help combat depression, decrease physical pain, improve memory and concentration encourage social interaction, reduce stress and anger and enhance productivity.
