The Troy Enabling Garden

There are many people who would love to garden but have difficulty gardening on the ground. They may be in a wheelchair or just unable to bend over for a long period of time. Troy Community Gardens has built 6 raised beds, which make it possible for people with disabilities to enjoy the pleasures of gardening. Presently, the raised beds are not fully wheelchair accessible as so are more suitable for people with disabilities who do not require the use of a wheelchair. Raised beds measuring 4'x8' are available for free to gardeners with disabilities.

Troy Gardens is planning the construction of a large Enabling Garden that will be fully wheelchair accessible. This garden will feature raised beds of various designs, wall gardens, espaliered fruit trees, and container gardens. We hope to raise funds to build the garden within the next few years.
