New research suggests that people who have access to a private garden and actively make use of it have better health and well-being than those without a garden.
A study by a team of researchers from the University of Exeter in the United Kingdom and the Royal Horticultural Society, a U.K.
charity, has found that having access to a private garden improves people’s health and well-being if they actively make use of it.
The research, which appears in the journal Landscape and Urban Planning, shines a light on the value of private green space, as well as public green space.
