Each year, our South Burlington Adult Day Program hosts a lunch party in its backyard garden, where participants enjoy a meal made with veggies, herbs and more, fresh from the garden. The event coincides with a flower arrangement activity with horticultural therapist Donna Covais and her team of master gardeners, who visit twice a month to feature different therapy programs for our participants. Check out some photos of the festivities below!
