NDIS Gardening Support

Disabled individuals often require assistance gardening. Many of them have difficulty learning new tasks or following detailed instructions for a specific gardening task. They can’t take care of a yard or garden on their own, and special tools may not be available for them to do the job. All of these reasons make it important for people with disabilities to have access to gardening services in order to stay healthy and active in their communities. NDIS gardening programs are one way that many Australian States help people with disabilities stay independent and connected to their local community. These programs offer supported gardening services so that people with disabilities can grow plants, maintain gardens, and preserve the environment at home. NDIS gardening programs vary across States and Territories but they generally share some key features. See the key elements of any NDIS garden.
