Morning chuckle 😂

Did you know??? Our amazing garden volunteers are here 3 days a week, and sometimes sneak over on the weekends, to maintain our beautiful landscaping! Over the last couple of years, they have created mini-gardens around the property, a Monarch waystaition, added garden decorations, built a compost, and most recently, added raised garden beds with lots of tomato and pepper plants that our kitchen crew will use this summer. 😁👏
THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO!

Another fun filled week here and it's only Wednesday! Fourth of July crafts ,courtesy of Stacy Munday, June birthday celebration ( special thanks to Twin Tunes and Alexis Gardens) and the Wednesday BUNCO group, always full of laughter!

We are open normal business hours this week and serve as a cooling center.

We celebrated Vern and Leslie Chesney for June Volunteers spotlight! For 7 years, they both lovingly give their time to Meals on Wheels, help with the phones, and help out whenever asked and needed. Leslie also serves as a Board Trustee and Vern is the unofficial handyman. They always have a smile on their faces and Vern has a joke at hand to make anyone laugh! Thank you both for your time and dedication to our community! ❤️❤️

2️⃣0️⃣2️⃣4️⃣ New Year ~ New Homecare Options❣️

Many of you visited friends and family this holiday season, did you notice someone who could benefit from some additional support in the home⁉️
Some common things to look are a decline in hygiene, weight loss, missing meals, not taking medications as prescribed.
Not being able to do routine tasks or get around as easily as one used to, forgetfulness or poor upkeep of the home are all signs that additional help is needed.
Isolation and loneliness leads to Depression, all of these can lead to a rapid decline in overall health. ❤️‍🩹

If you or someone you know could use additional support in the home…(a little help can go along ways for some)❤️🙂
