Growing together
Rosemont’s gardening club needed a raised flower bed, and when the idea was brought up, Mr. Ripley and Life Enrichment Coordinator MaLinda knew just what to do. Working together, they built a beautiful raised bed, thoughtfully constructed at chair height so everyone could comfortably participate. Their project is a true example of teamwork, creativity, and the simple power of making things grow—together.
The raised bed has already become a beloved feature of the garden, inviting residents to gather, plant, and enjoy the outdoors in a way that’s both accessible and engaging. It’s not just about growing flowers and herbs—it’s about cultivating joy, connection, and a sense of accomplishment. Thanks to this thoughtful collaboration, Rosemont residents now have a welcoming space to dig in the dirt, share gardening tips, and take pride in watching their efforts bloom.
