Healing Gardens: The Power and Practice of Nature in Senior Communities will be held on

Jersey. The seminar is geared to landscape architects, designers, master planning firms, assisted living

facility managers, continuing care retirement community administrators, horticultural therapists and

and Medford Leas, a Quaker-directed, not-for-profit community for older adults. The focus of the

conference is the important concept that engaging older adults in horticultural activities, therapeutic

gardens, and sensitively designed landscapes fosters a sense of well-being, promotes healing, and adds

value for retirement community residents.
