Welcome to Garden Bridge Outreach

Garden Bridge Outreach is an interactive garden life skill education service developed by Scott Koepke.

Research affirms that the act of gardening is therapeutic. In addition to producing food and beauty, gardens grow healthier minds and social networks. From soil to soul, this inspirational and fun workshop offers food for thought on how nurturing botanical life can heal peoples’ mental and physical challenges. We build from the ground up to harvest nutrition, and cultivate hope, peace and strength for the next generation. Hort Heals Hurt
