Gardens to. Isit

(Question)

I will be having surgery soon … walking is part of the recovery program. I was thinking walking through gardens would be a fun way to do this and wondered if you gave suggestions on places to visit. Thanks.

(Answer)

Thank you for contacting Toronto Master Gardeners regarding garden walks post surgery. Exercising in nature can be a beneficial way to promote recovery. To plan your walking program, it would be wise to consult with your physician and physiotherapist to determine your requirements. Often exercise program requirements are set out by the health care team so that is a start for your particular needs. Keep in mind there may be indoor masking or other directives set out by the individual garden.
