Courses will appeal to teachers, healthcare professionals, horticulturists, landscape designers and others wishing to learn more about connecting people and plants; or to those who wish to explore career opportunities in horticultural therapy and therapeutic horticulture. Four courses, each of which can be taken independently, provide up to 160 hours of lively instruction in a variety of local facilities and gardens.
