Bird Programs Earth Touch was started in 1991 by Lea Nading, HTR.

It was a new program started with the Winston-Salem Recreation & Parks Dept. The mission was and is to make horticultural and nature programs accessible to special populations (low income, mentally, physically, and emotionally challenged, youth at risk, seniors, hospital and nursing home patients). We also help motivate people to be all they can be using plant and nature activities. Examples of ac

tivities are: nature crafts, gardening, plant giveaways, insect encounters and nature walks. When the city discontinued the program in 2011 Lea retired but has continued as a mobile program going to sites served and working out of her residence. Some of the sites being served at this time are Crystal, Sunrise and Healy Towers, Piedmont Park, Cleveland Ave Homes, Eastgate Apts.,Bethesda Center for the Homeless, City With Dwellings and Daymark Friendship Center. Volunteers and donations are needed to keep the program going. To be involved and keep us blooming contact:
