Our Stories

Canning peaches is just one of the many talents that Karen, Julie and Carolyn have cultivated over the years.  They enjoy baking bread, tending to their herb and vegetable gardens and sharing their harvest with their neighbors.  These tasks not only foster daily living skills,  but socialization and participation within their community.
