Garden a natural way for therapy (mpacorn.com)
The scrub-covered lot at 1722 Lewis Road in Camarillo may not yet look like a garden, but in a few months, succulents will fill one section and newly minted gardeners will be tending to a variety of plants in other sections. The Ventura County Board of Supervisors voted 5-0 at its Dec. 12 meeting to lease the land to Ventura-based nonprofit Turning Point Foundation for a new job training program called Growing Works. Turning Point offers programs for people living with mental illness.
