Grow with the Tree

This is your opportunity to grow with our Members & bring a day of enrichment to our day program!

Examples include photography lessons, gardening, musical instrument lessons, yoga, cooking, dance class, and so much more.

If you’ve got a skill or passion, we’ve got a community of talented individuals ready to learn & grow with you.

One lesson would be a 2-4 hour block of service – reach out to us if you are interested in a more long-term program.
