Growing Together

Practical tips and resources to make gardening spaces welcoming for everyone 

The Growing Together Guide and Tip Sheets share practical ideas that follow the principles of universal design. Universal design means planning spaces so that people with different bodies, senses, and ways of thinking can all take part. It helps make gardening easier, safer, and more enjoyable for everyone.
