City of Fort Collins (Gardens on Spring Creek)

The Gardens on Spring Creek in Fort Collins, Colorado, will expand the frequency, diversity, and focus of health and wellness programming to respond to increasing community demand related to COVID-19 stressors. The gardens will incorporate programming that was created during the pandemic on a more permanent basis and will offer additional yoga classes, a tai chi class, and a garden holistic wellness class. New programs will be available for the Spanish-speaking community, and signage throughout the garden will be upgraded to include both English and Spanish. Local assisted living facilities will host a gardening program for the elderly. The gardens will hire two part-time staff members and recruit additional volunteers to carry out the health and wellness programs.
