Spring topic at Craig Eagerness to plant seeds and cuttings, and to feel the warm earth between one’s fingers prevailed at the Activity Centre at the Craigweil Gardens Complex Wednesday. Craigholme Nursing Home hosted a seminar, March 2 for the area Nursing homes. Plant propagation and flower arrangements were keynotes of the mini workshop sponsored by the Royal Botanical Gardens of Hamilton in connection with the Ontario Ministry of Culture and Recreation. Horticulturist Lynn Dennis stressed that “horticulture is How much faster does Gas heat water? How much cheaper does Gas heat water? only a means to stimulate awareness and involvement of persons in nursing homes and homes for the aged”. He demonstrated many times over how horticulture can be excellent therapy. In addition to involving the participant in doing actual plantings and flower arrangements, he presented a number of tools which can be used by persons with various handicaps to enable them to continue gardening. Many of these were hand­ made and designed to fit special needs while others can be bought commercially. In order to help stimulate the residents to meaningful activity, Donnie Williams, occupational therapy worker who assisted Mr. Dennis, had the participants place themselves in the role of the residents. First she un­ covered a hyacinth plant in full bloom and inquired how it made one feel. Then she uncovered a neglected, dying plant in contrast, and outlined ways of using horticulture to stimulate residents. Twelve homes from the surrounding areas were involved in the day long seminar.
