In summer 2022, we broke ground on our newest garden at Elawa Farm. This ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) accessible garden will host our future educational programs, as well as build greater accessibility and inclusivity on our farm grounds. Using design concepts such as vertical wall gardens, raised beds, crushed gravel pathways, and a natural shade structure, visitors will learn how gardens can be adapted to accommodate and integrate any person, regardless of age or ability. Our accessibility garden is scheduled for public opening in spring 2023.
We are grateful for the support of our community. This collaborative project was made possible by major support from Fletcher Family Foundation,
The Grainger Foundation, and Helen Post/Plansoen Foundation. A special thank you to Grounded in Design and Manfredini Landscaping & Design for bringing this vision to life!
Our accessibility garden is scheduled for public opening in spring 2023.
