“I just wanted to thank you for all the love and support you put into this program. I know it means the world to the vets as they tell me all the time how much they enjoy it. The program has made a serious impact on the lives of our vets.”
-Veteran Services Coordinator
How we started the program.
As our horticultural programming was about to kick off in early 2020, we, like everyone else, had to postpone our in person activities due to COVID-19.
We were challenged with not being able to bring plant and plant based activities to Veteran communities we were serving across the Delaware Valley,
Until we had an idea.
The opportunity.
What if we could deliver plant based activities to Veterans at their homes? This way, they could still have a connection to horticulture, engage from a social perspective, while still feeling safe about their health.
The Program. Mission: Windowsill
If you have a windowsill, you can grow anything.
We are proud to offer plant based activities locally and across the country to Veteran communities. Check back to find out where we're virtually headed next! If you're interested in getting involved and learning about activity programming: info@heroicgardens.org
Bring the healing power of plants to a Veteran's windowsill.
You can donate to provide a Mission Windowsill program to a Veteran. Help a Veteran learn how to grow hope right in their own home. (Suggested donation: $50)
