We promote therapeutic gardening within the community. Our aim is to bring together people with mental ill health, physical or learning disabilities. We also work with those who face significant barriers to finding employment. Through our facilitated work placements, training and interactive gardening sessions, we build and promote self-confidence.
From seeds and local cuttings at our base at the Tankerness House Garden greenhouses, we grow:
- young veg plants
- ornamental summer bedding
- perennial plants
- shrubs
These are made available to the Orkney community.
We also maintain the historic community gardens at Tankerness House in Kirkwall.
