Project Description:
The PATCH is seeking to make enhancements to their Healing Garden, by increasing their ability to pollinate, learn and develop. The Healing Garden was built to be a place of growth, reflection and empowerment. This grant request would provide the ability to develop a pollinator habitat, bat houses and inclusive signage for all visitors. Utilizing braille and textured communication, descriptive pictures to assist people that are living with unique needs to enjoy our healing garden.
The PATCH will partner with social services agencies, schools and care providers for people seeking an accessible and adaptive urban agriculture experience. The building process will be a community lead initiative with participants from Hutton House creating signage with mediums such as clay and wood.
This project will be created by and delivered to people with disabilities and barriers, including deaf blindness and autism. Many of the participants The PATCH assist live with food insecurity and struggle with stable housing and supports.
