Cape Fear Botanical Garden provides individuals of all abilities a meaningful way to connect to the natural world through programs that are tailored to the group’s goals.

Accessible raised beds, containers, adaptable tools and resources are provided to enhance each experience. Many community organizations participate in the benefits of indoor and outdoor therapeutic horticulture programs where they learn new skills, explore our sensory-filled Garden, and give back to the community through creative art and garden projects. We currently share our programs with the Vision Resource Center, Service Source of NC, LIFE St Joseph of the Pines, Cape Fear Valley Cancer Centers, Harmony Senior Services-Hope Mills, Fayetteville Veteran’s Affairs and Community Patriot Arts Center.
