What People Are Saying
From families, CSA members, and program partners who trust MEG year after year.
The clients and therapists at Full Potential Therapy can’t wait for this year’s garden to show up. So many kids got to experience touching, picking, watering and eating healthy foods that would not have been possible without MEGs garden. Thank you so much for making this experience happen!!
We LOVE our “instant garden” and have so enjoyed having a great variety of thriving plants growing outside our kitchen window all summer long. Even the kids have been inspired to cook what they harvest. What a joy! Andy always has great tips, recipes and resources to share during our drop-offs, which is appreciated and helpful. If you’ve been considering trying this out, I highly recommend going for it. You won’t be disappointed! Growing together, Jamie. :)
Fabulous plants and home CSA service. It was so great to just go outside and pick fruits and veggies but have the support of Andy and Meg’s expertise!
Amazing experience! I’m so grateful to have learned from Andrew. This is a great company if you’re interested in learning and growing your own foods with some support from caring people – that want the best for you.
Frequently Asked Questions:
| Is this organic? We use a combination of organic-based practices and OMRI-compliant inputs when appropriate. Our focus is plant health, food safety, and consistent performance in a clinical setting — not retail organic labeling. All edible plants are grown using safe, professional horticultural practices. Will this increase our staff workload? No. MEG gardens are designed to function as “outdoor therapeutic programming without increasing staff workload.” We install, maintain, rotate crops, and manage seasonal transitions. Staff simply incorporate the garden into existing therapy sessions — no extra gardening expertise required. Do our therapists need gardening experience? Not at all. The system is intentionally simplified. No tilling. No raised-bed construction. No plant troubleshooting. We provide structured planting layouts and seasonal refreshes so your team can focus on therapy — not horticulture logistics. What happens during the winter? We provide seasonal transitions, crop rotation, and winterization support. Clinics can choose to: Close the garden for winter Extend the season with frost protection Use indoor grow systems (if desired) We plan ahead so the garden remains predictable year to year. Is this safe for clients? Yes. The grow systems are self-contained, elevated, and designed to reduce: Soil contamination risk Trip hazards Weeds Sharp edges Food grown can be eaten on-site as part of therapy activities. What makes MEG different from a traditional garden? Traditional gardens require: Soil preparation Weed control Irrigation management Ongoing troubleshooting MEG gardens are modular, self-contained systems designed specifically for busy organizations. They’re built to reduce friction — not create it. Is there a long-term contract? We begin with a pilot season. If the garden proves valuable for your clinic (it usually does), we transition into a renewal structure with priority scheduling and seasonal support. So what’s the catch? There isn’t one. You get a professionally managed therapeutic garden space — without adding new responsibilities to your team. |
