National Garden Week at Melody Living Colorado Springs

6/7/2023

National Garden Week at Melody Living Colorado Springs
It’s National Gardening Week! Our very own Melody Living independent living community’s Gardening Club is getting our green thumb on to celebrate.

Our Life Enrichment Director started the Gardening Club last year after several residents expressed interest.

​Much like many of the things we do here at Melody Living, the Gardening Club is resident-led, which means that residents choose what activities, clubs, and outings they want to be included in daily life at Melody Living.
Last year, the Gardening Club planted and grew a variety of plants including corn, squash, cucumber, carrots, radishes, onions, herbs, and more.

​They then harvested the crops and our in-house gourmet chef included them in a variety of dishes for all to enjoy! This year, the Gardening Club plans to plant a variety of tomatoes, herbs, greens, flowers, and other vegetables.
 
Did you know that gardening has been known to be an excellent activity for seniors as it offers a multitude of benefits? It’s true! Gardening creates environmental wellness not only by beautifying the surrounding environment, but also by increasing clean air and helping endangered bees in our community.

Both mental health and physical wellness are impacted positively through taking part in active gardening. Gardening can help to reduce stress, anxiety, and depression while also burning calories in a low intensity workout that can be adjusted for any ability level.

​Visit our contact page or give us a call at 719.900.1540 to reach our independent living community and ask us about scheduling a VIP tour of our retirement campus in Colorado Springs and find out more about the various clubs we offer to residents.
 
A Life in Harmony™ is waiting for you at Melody Living!
