Order a Hanging Basket From iMap's Growing Garden!
iMap Head Office, in the Barrowmore Estates, has recently received a delivery of beautiful hanging baskets from our own Growing Garden. Here's a little about our Growing Garden, and how you can support it by buying your own hanging basket...
iMap's Growing Garden is specially designed to bring our individuals closer to nature. It provides a safe space for our residents and pupils to experience a thriving ecosystem where they can grow and harvest their own fruit and vegetables, as well as spend time with horses and chickens - animals which studies have shown to be incredibly therapeutic for those with autism.
However, with the Growing Garden heavily reliant on volunteers, it needs a little support from the wider community. Whether that be by volunteering yourself, or by purchasing its produce - and we can attest to their quality - with all proceeds reinvested directly back into the project.
Over the previous months, our employees have had the ability to purchase the fruits of our volunteer's labour, with organic eggs, tomatoes and pumpkins among the produce delivered to our Head Office, as well as the school's kitchen.
But, our latest delivery has been a collection of hanging flower baskets which beautifully adorn the outsides of our offices. Just check them out for yourself!
Each of the flowers are grown and selected from our wildflower patch at the Growing Garden, and re-planted into the hanging baskets to enjoy life swinging in the wind.
You can order your own beautiful basket, and customise its contents to your wishes, by messaging the Growing Garden's Instagram page. Each basket is £25 and can be topped up throughout the year for £15 each.
