Abstract
The field of Horticultural Therapy has grown in recent years and is now a part of many wide-ranging health and mental health services. Despite this, there is a lack of standardization of the field. Through a content analysis of HT program websites, the present study sought to illuminate some of the trends in the practice of Horticultural Therapy, specifically around practitioner education and services provided. The most common education type for practitioners was certificate-based. Services offered frequently focused on workshops, with special attention to diversity and inclusion.
