Gardengate is a space of healing and recovery for individuals living with addictions or mental health conditions. Through activities in the garden, we’ll support you to work towards personal goals such as healthy eating, active living, or vocational training. Build skills and confidence as you grow and harvest food for yourself, and for the Kamloops community.

Getting Started.
Contact Us
Contact us to set up a tour of the garden. You can phone or email us directly, or ask someone to arrange the tour on your behalf.
Tours are about 20 minutes, and take place Monday to Friday afternoons by appointment.
Apply
Enjoy the tour and ask questions. If you decide the program is right for you after the tour, we will give you some paperwork to fill out.
You can take the paperwork away with you to complete on your own or with support from another person.
Begin
Once you have completed the paperwork, call us to set up your first shift.
We will work with you to find a day that works for you. This day will become your weekly shift. Program shifts start at 9 am and go until 12 pm, with a break at 10:15 am.
