Do Some Good
Our mission at Windowbox.com is to provide useful information, advice, and supplies to help people experience the joys of growing plants in containers. We're committed to the idea that bringing people and plants together makes the world a better place. Our two favorite ways this happens are in community gardening and horticultural therapy.

Briefly, horticultural therapy is the study of people/plant relationships and how gardening and working with plants can be used to promote mental, physical, and emotional health.

Community gardens are open spaces in neighborhoods where people come together to grow plants and relationships that beautify their environment, nourish their bodies, and strengthen their community.

Please enjoy this selection of information and resources on these topics, and let us know of other sites you'd like us to include - as well as your personal stories of ways that plants have touched your life.
