NDIS Gardening support in Winter – What’s Possible?
When the weather gets colder, many people assume gardening stops.
But for NDIS participants, light gardening supports can continue through winter – and they can make a real difference.
What Is Light Gardening Support under NDIS?
NDIS-funded gardening usually covers basic, non-specialist outdoor tasks, such as:
Sweeping paths and removing fallen leaves 🍂
Minor pruning and weeding 🌿
Clearing accessways to prevent slips
General outdoor tidying
These supports don’t replace commercial gardening or landscaping –but they’re ideal for maintaining safety, accessibility, and wellbeing at home.
Why Is Gardening Still Important in Winter?
Even in colder months, your outdoor space can affect your health.
