We're bringing the healing power of plants to Veterans in the comfort and safety of their own homes and VA locations. Because, if you have a windowsill, you can grow anything!
"I love this program. Thank you so much. This elevates your spirit. It's great for homebound Veterans."
-Veteran participant
“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
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.
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.
If you have a windowsill, you can grow anything.
We are proud to offer plant based activities locally and to Veterans and their Caregiver. If you're interested in getting involved, donating to this important programming and learning about upcoming activities email us: plantlove@heroicgardens.org
If you don't live in the Delaware Valley OR if you can't make it to one of the VA locations, we meet monthly. All you need is a computer with a wireless connection, a sense of wonder, and of course humor. We'll do the rest.
There are many opportunities to get you and your organization involved with the Veteran community. Hear from our friends at Toast Inc about their experience working with the Heroic Gardens team.
