More about the Garden of Healing The 1/2 acre Garden of Healing is near Soddy Daisy, Tennessee, 1/2 hour north of the city of Chattanooga. Groundbreaking began in November 1996. The living memorial garden continues to be developed by Bill and Kathleen Sullivan and other volunteers. The majority of items and plants have been donated to honor the experiences and strengths of victims, survivors, and helping persons. The Healers' Garden specifically honors support persons who help survivors to recover and heal. Although the Sullivans own the land that the garden is on, NAFF's legal contract with the Sullivans ensures that all items that are donated to NAFF, other than items that cannot be physically removed (e.g., sprinkler systems and electrical wiring installed by the Sullivans) will remain in NAFF's possession. The Sullivans have incorporated soothing features throughout the garden. Visitors are welcome to explore various scents emitted by plants in the herb garden, rose garden, and butterfly garden. Benches are placed throughout the garden. We ask that visitors who have child alter-states be accompanied by at least one support person during their first visit. Child alter-states are welcome to enjoy the garden in their own way. We have three main rules concerning garden visits: no harming yourself, others, or garden property. Extra on-site support is available upon request. Throughout the garden are heart-shaped miniature monuments that were available in the past through NAFF. The pink, jade, and dove gray monuments consist of crushed marble and are laser-etched with personalized inscriptions and coated with a transparent, UV-resistant material. Although no one will ever be buried in the garden, some of the monuments were installed by donors to honor loved ones who were murdered during criminal occult rituals. Some plants and objects in the garden have been physically donated by donors. Other donors prefer to donate money to NAFF with requests for specific plants or trees to be installed. Upon request, any donor will receive a photo of the plant or installed object as a keepsake. Donors are welcome to install objects and plants. Please contact NAFF to make necessary arrangements. Because NAFF is a non-profit 509(a)(2) private foundation, all donations are tax-deductible. Although the garden has room for more plants and objects, we cannot install any more trees. We are careful to install plants that are tolerant of our climate (zone eight) and give them the best possible care. We cannot guarantee, however, that all plants will survive. If any donated plant does not survive local weather conditions, we reserve the right to replace it with a hardier specimen. We will first attempt to contact the donor to ask if he/she has any preferences. If you want to visit the garden, you will be given driving directions after you contact us via E-mail or postal mail. Inquiries about the garden can be mailed to us at NAFF, PO Box 1328, Soddy Daisy TN, 37384-1328 or sent via E-mail to mail@naffoundation.org (please include "NAFF" in the subject line).
