The garden was formed in 2002 by Liz Bullard, a speech and language pathologist. The mission of the garden, as described on their website, is to "improve the lives of children with physical or mental disablilites by providing them with full access to a safe indoor/outdoor recreation space and offering incusive programs that encourage their potential."
The garden is open for limited periods of time, based on whatever programs are being offered. Generally, the hours are Monday through Thursday from 9:30 AM to 1:30 PM, and on Friday from 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM.
Sounds like a great garden. I'm glad that there is someplace that children, with disabilities, are able to go to to learn about different types of gardens.
