WAGEES participants and staff at the Botanic Gardens!

The WAGEES program is about community and connection on this day October 4,2023 we had the pleasure of spending the day with several participants at Denver Botanic Gardens. This allowed our team to spread the collective wisdom of the Gardens through outreach, collaboration and education. Creating a space for those who haven't had the experience to connect with people and plants. We really value getting the chance to provide exposure to our participants outside of the day-to-day work life. This day allowed our program to inspire our participants to be good stewards of the environment. Botanic Gardens was a wonderful place for us to inherit nature and receive the earth as a source of healing. Organizing events such as these with our participants showcases the P.O.U.R mission of our program which is to PROVIDE, OFFER, UPLIFT, and REBUILD this provides transformation, diversity, and sustainability. We enjoyed this beautiful day at Denver Botanic Gardens. -WAGEES TEAM
