Re: accessible raised beds


Amy, 
 
Please go to  http://www.communitygarden.org/links.php#seniors where there is a wealth of information on the "how to," of gardening with seniors, and the movement challenged. 
 
If you're nearby, the Enabled Garden at the Chicago Botanic Garden is a national model:

Please let us know how you make out with your enabled community garden. 
 
 
Regards, 
Adam Honigman
