Ark Regional Services Horticulture Program

Provides horticulture classes and hands-on gardening experiences for adults with developmental disabilities. Participants and their mentors grow vegetables, herbs, fruits, and mushrooms in a hoop house and outdoor garden, and fresh produce is then used to help prepare meals at group homes in Laramie as part of the ‘Ark Seed to Table’ experience. Participants also are involved with planting and caring for flowers (including pollinators) in several public gardens within the community.
