Introducing THAD!
We're excited to announce the launch of THAD --
an open access database for Therapeutic Horticulture and Horticultural Therapy activities!
THAD, short for Therapeutic Horticulture Activity Database, is a collaborative effort between
Florida Horticulture for Health Network
Nova Scotia Horticulture for Health Network
California Horticultural Therapy Network
Mid-Atlantic Horticultural Therapy Network
Carolinas Horticultural Therapy Network
University of Florida Certificate in Horticultural Therapy
Hosted by the University of Florida, the platform is accessible HERE.
THAD is searchable in three ways:
Activity Type: Explore a diverse range of activities, each accompanied by essential planning elements, step-by-step instructions, and more.
Goals: Discover therapeutic goals associated with various horticultural activities.
Populations: Learn about activities tailored to specific populations for targeted therapeutic benefits.
We invite and encourage contributions to THAD from our growing community of practitioners and enthusiasts. Your input will play a crucial role in expanding and diversifying the content, making THAD a dynamic and comprehensive resource for everyone interested in Therapeutic Horticulture and Horticultural Therapy. As more individuals contribute, THAD will become an increasingly valuable resource for the field.
Explore THAD and let the journey of shared knowledge and growth begin!
