Horticultural Therapy Programs
are conducted in this garden, providing gardening opportunities
to those whom would not otherwise have them. The raised
beds in the Schoolhouse Garden are currently planted with
herbs and vegetables suited to our high mountain climate.
Over time, the beds will be planted with medicinal and
useful plants of mountain cultures worldwide. Our research
so far includes plants used by the Ute Indians that once
lived in the Vail Valley, the plants once grown by the
Incas of South America, the mountain people of India and
some of the remote Himalayan valleys in Nepal.
