Holme Farm Community Project

I feel very privileged to be a part of an inspiring community project in my role as designer for the sensory garden.

Holme Farm is a community hub that will include workshops, gardens and wildlife across 8 acres. It is a multi-facility approach to health, wellbeing and community, and will provide a therapeutic environment in which people within North Surrey can socialise, learn and thrive. 

The sensory garden will include calming scents such as lavender and jasmine as well as calming areas for the whole family to use, which can help reduce depression and aid stress release.

A sensory garden is a garden environment that is designed with the purpose of stimulating the senses. This stimulation occurs courtesy of plants and the use of materials that engage one’s senses of sight, smell, touch, taste, and sound. These types of gardens are popular with and beneficial to both children and adults, especially those who have sensory processing issues, including autism and other disabilities.
