"Sowing the Seeds of Harmony through Nature"
About this committee:
Members of this committee have worked with residents of Luther Crest personal care facility and South Whitehall Township senior group to provide special programs with activities related to plants and gardening. The club donates the plants and materials for these events.
On Tuesday, October 28th, committee Co-chairs Mary Stanley and Evelyn Broad along with 14 Parkland Garden Club members visited Luther Crest to offer the retirement home residents a program in making a burlap Fall leaf door decoration. All supplies and refreshments were donated by the Parkland GC (particular thanks go to Karen Pimble for providing the burlap). Residents enjoyed the afternoon and took great pride in decorating their leaf ornaments. Snacks, drinks and cake were offered after the activity. Luther Crest staff was on hand to support the activity including Yortenis Vega (Home Helpers Caregiver), Vicky Bohning (Lifetime Enrichment Coordinator) and Angela Cardona (Lifetime Enrichment Coordinator). Thank you to the staff and PGC volunteers for providing a lovely afternoon!
The PGC Horticultural Enrichment committee presented an activity on Friday, May 23rd for residents of EverTrue Luther Crest. Committee Chair Mary Stanley organized an activity where residents painted a ceramic pot and planted succulents in each. The participants then enjoyed refreshments served by club volunteers. It was an afternoon of fun for all!
