Garden Art

Our ‘adults’ may not always have the opportunity to “learn to work” in the community. Budget cuts and lack of services make this very important option few and far between for our ‘adults’ once they transition from high school to the community. Our ‘adults’ have the desire and skill set to work, they just need the opportunity to polish these skills so they, like everyone else, can become contributing members of their local community.

DIGS, Inc. provides learning-to-work options for our ‘adults’ to help parents and caregivers make items such as garden art, botanical handmade soaps, and greeting cards. Our all-volunteer staff helps our ‘adults’ learn important skills for a work environment, through the safe use of tools and equipment, working as a team, social skills appropriate for a work environment, scheduling, and following directions.

DIGS participates in local arts and crafts fairs. Our unique garden art items, botanical handmade soaps, and greeting cards are available for a suggested donation. You can also find unique one-of-a-kind pieces at our new gift shop “One Step Closer Unique Garden Art” To find out more, visit our calendar page for details on shop hours and events.

DIGS Garden Art Gift Shop Open on Friday & Saturday 1pm – 5pm → 408 Broad St, Rome, GA 30161
