For example, managing anxiety and depression, building confidence, reducing social isolation and providing purpose and achievement.
Gardening can improve physical and mental health as well as communication and thinking skills because it can offer physical exercise, building dexterity, time outside in nature, learning new skills, creativity, peaceful concentration, or enjoying good company.
