Please Call 739-0222 or email aholland@community-concepts.org if your agency/business/school would like to have a pinwheel garden. We will help supply the pinwheels.


Pinwheel gardens represent the support for all of the survivors of child maltreatment. They are a symbol of the innocence of childhood, and the work done to preserve that innocence. Pinwheel gardens are a way to show our commitment to the children of today.
