Therapeutic Recreation Center

The Therapeutic Recreation Center (TR Center) is our newest program location. After a meeting with community members, our Garden Club programming with seniors at the site was launched.

Our History with the TR Center

In 2019, Everybody Grows built a garden bed at the TR Center next to pollinator gardens built by the local non-profit DC Natives.

In January 2020, we met with community members and staff at the center to determine their interest in gardening and gardening programming. Attendees requested a “Garden Club” for them to have more of an opportunity to engage with gardening. There was also a need around more accessible garden beds.

Everybody Grows is hosting a day to build accessible garden tables, including one for this center. The first “Garden Club” program will be in March 2020.
