Garden Day at Venture House Queens. Our partners at Bristol Myers Squibb and The Home Depot joined Venture House members and staff for a day of community gardening at Venture House Queens.

Thanks to Home Depot's generous support of plants, materials, and expertise, this project was made possible. Together, we enhanced our garden, creating a welcoming outdoor space that supports wellness and recovery.

We are grateful to our volunteers, staff, and members for helping make the day such a success and for their continued commitment to the Venture House community.
