Did you know that interacting with plants can actually calm your nervous system? 🪴😌 Our experts at NC State Extension are helping North Carolinians do just that through our therapeutic horticulture programming.
From tabletop sunflower seed planting to plant identification strolls, the different kinds of programs offered across the state are helping people across all ages and ability levels enhance their well-being.
"In a nutshell, it is facilitating a people-plant connection in a therapeutic setting so participants can move toward their wellness goals by being more connected to plants and nature," said Amy Bruzzichesi, NC State Extension's statewide program manager for therapeutic horticulture.
