The Tatum’s Garden Foundation exists to cultivate accessible, inclusive play.
Tatum's Garden has been an enormous success, showcasing the need to children, teens, and adults with all abilities to have a safe place to come and play. Due to the park usage being much higher than we ever thought possible, the lifespan of the equipment, including the rubberized surface, has been much shorter than is typical. We did undertake and execute a great 10 year anniversary refurbishment, getting new equipment, and fixing rubberized surface issues that had crept up. However, we will need to full redo the surface so that we can have a truly accessible park for the next 10+ years.
My son Felix absolutely adores Tatum's Garden. Here he is able to participate and play with his cousins. He is always asking me, "Mom when can we go to Tatum's?". We are so blessed to have this park in our community.
