Healthy Haven Garden Designed by Julia Baker Based on the Healthy Haven Garden at the Waterside Medical Practice in Hythe, Southampton, this show garden will be created by a team of volunteers.All equipment used is recycled or has been donated by the local community. It represents a garden escape for patients, medical staff, gardening volunteers and the whole community with colourful flowers, herbs, fruit, and vegetables within a wildlife-friendly environment. The healthy haven is open during the week for quiet reflection, volunteer gardening, a bereavement support group and events, including summer strawberry cream teas and themed community open days. /*!
