🌿 Communities in Bloom 2026 Theme: Therapeutic Gardening 🌿
This year is all about creating spaces that not only look beautiful… but feel good too 💚
As we start thinking about spring, we’d love to hear from YOU, Calmar 👇
✨ What does a “feel-good” outdoor space look like to you?
🌱 Is it a quiet spot to sit and unwind?
🌸 Bright flowers that lift your mood?
🌼 A place to gather with family and friends?
🌿 Something simple and tidy that brings you peace?
And for our families and little ones 👧🧒
🌈 What kinds of sensory experiences could we add to our gardens?
👃 Fragrant plants like lavender or mint?
✋ Different textures like soft lamb’s ear or smooth stones?
🎶 Wind chimes or grasses that rustle in the breeze?
👀 Bright colours, shapes, and spaces to explore?
Sensory gardens can be calming, engaging, and incredibly beneficial for children (and adults too!)—helping support relaxation, focus, and connection to nature 🌿
💬 Share your ideas, plans, or even photos for inspiration in the comments!
Let’s inspire each other and make Calmar a place that supports not just beauty—but well-being for all ages 💐
