The Arbor Farm Rural Day Program is located in Rochester, Minnesota, and is a therapeutic agriculture program centered around a 2.5-acre micro farm and nature area. Participants can actively engage with each other and staff while learning how to grow and maintain various vegetable crops, herbs, and medicinal plants both indoors and outdoors. They will also learn how to develop their produce into products such as lip balms, soaps, candles, and salves.
SMB Disability Solutions in Rochester, MN, is a social service organization specializing in Adult Foster Care (group homes), Respite Services, Day Support Services, and Individualized Home Supports (IHS). We serve adults with brain injuries, mental health conditions, and other physical and neurological disabilities. We create uncommon communities throughout our “Continuum of Care” model within safe, sober, and nurturing environments, and we provide individually-designed programs to enable each person to move towards their full potential. We help people design their own personal care plans as we strive to find an appropriate balance of freedom and structure to maximize the person’s opportunities for success and personal growth.
