 Description

Assist in maintaining our Ability Garden for adults with disabilities through watering, weeding, planting and 
special projects.  Our Ability Garden is a garden that fosters mental and physical health and is accessible for 
all.  This organic garden, which includes Texas native trees, bushes, flowering perennials and reseeding 
annuals as well as heat and drought tolerant varieties of herbs and vegetables, enables our clients to develop their 
communication, socialization, motor, and horticultural skills.  It brings them a sense of accomplishment and 
pure delight as they watch their work grow.
