On Vancouver Island, a backyard oasis is being created for one young woman who has struggled with significant and serious illness for too long. Through Covid isolation, she has discovered a deepening love for, and connection with, nature. Her experience involves landscaping her safe space in her garden including a state-of-the-art chicken coop, a wired and plumbed greenhouse, and other features to allow her to spend time in reflection. She is also enjoying the space to connect further with her nieces.
