The Redwoods has a wonderful organic garden that provides opportunities
for the residents to get their hands into the dirt.
It is built with raised beds so it is easy to reach the plants and to work in the soil.
We have a garden activities co-ordinator, Fred.
He assists the residents with the garden... many of the seniors are excellent gardeners.
GARDEN CART
Even if you do not step a foot into the garden, you can benefit from the bounty produced each week.
On Thursdays at noon, the garden cart gets brought into the library.
The "harvesters" gather the week's harvest and put the food into baskets.
Then the food is shared with the Redwoods' Residents.
Today, I enjoyed a salad made with fresh greens and some Miner's Lettuce.
Here is Fred and 3 Harvesters behind the cart laden with fresh produce.

That is certainly a plus for living there! Nice painting of the cart.
