Horticulture for Healing at Arlington Garden

Horticulture for Healing is a free workshop series for nonprofit and community-based organization employees impacted by the Eaton and Palisades fires. Hosted by The Planted Brain and Jericho Road of Pasadena at Arlington Garden in Pasadena, these hands-on sessions use plants, nature, and somatic practice to support rest, restoration, and healing for those who have been holding others through the crisis.

About The Planted Brain

The Planted Brain, Inc. is a Los Angeles-based 501(c)3 nonprofit redefining what mental health care can look like. The Planted Brain aims to make mental health care accessible, trauma-informed, culturally rooted, and grounded in the healing power of nature.

Founded by David S. Washington, LCSW, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, UC-certified Master Gardener, and Certified Therapeutic Horticulture practitioner with over 15 years of clinical experience. The Planted Brain was built on a simple but radical belief: healing doesn’t only happen in clinical settings. It happens in gardens, in circles, in community.

This activity is facilitated by David Washington. His approach is compassionate, steady, and rooted in helping people feel grounded and supported.
