WelcomeTavon Center is a unique program that connects people with disabilities to the community and nature through horticultural therapy.The Tavon Center program is built with three core elements in mind:
• Work: Building vocational skills
• Nature: Connecting to plants, earth, and animals
• Community: Inclusion and contribution to our friends and neighbors
Our program pairs horticultural therapy with community involvement to awaken the senses to the natural world
and confirm our clients’ sense of purpose and belonging.
For young adults with disabilities who are making the transition from school to work, Tavon Center provides transferrable
skills with the ultimate goal of readying those who are able for jobs in the community.
Clients of Tavon run the day-to-day operations of accessible vegetable and herb gardens located in Issaquah, Washington,
and have a goal of selling the produce at local farmers’ markets.
Current activites include cooking, gardening, animal care, and life skills. If you know someone who would benefit from spending time at Tavon Center, please contact us.
