Garden created and tended by members of a rehabilitation centre

Is this still at the Monastery?

beautiful gardens

There doing a good job there....

Yes it is Bornagain - these boys are slowing and successfully escaping from the clutches of drugs via "land" therapy - they are taught to be self sufficient and appreciate the fruits of their labours ....great place - it's another Franciscan Monastery

Excellent therapy...

Fantastic therapy, they are so lucky:-)

Yes they are indeed very lucky, as some of them I've been told are in a such a an existential mess when they arrive ...

Hope they have as much success sorting out their personal lives as they have organising that garden. It's looking terrific.

That's what's so wonderful Gee - it works. I spoke to one of those of the boys as we were looking round the monastery and you could tell he had found peace with the world and within his heart ....

Monty Don tried something along those lines in a TV programme a year or two ago. I don't know if the idea carried on after the programme finished. It's great to know it works :)

I hope it did Gee, or else it would've made a sham of the whole programme if it didn't - - - -
