Sister Cecilia’s Famous Peppers

Pumpkins, zucchini, tomatoes and Sister Cecilia’s Famous Peppers can all be found among the roses in our sunny gardens. Even watermelon made an appearance this summer!

Succulents by Daisy

Daisy seems to have a green thumb.  She has shared her talents with the other residents here at Nazareth House by creating a succulent bed among the Care Center vegetable garden.  Her advice:  shade from the sun when too hot, and enjoy watching the babies sprout from the mother plant!

“The corn is as high….”

…and the tomatoes too!  The gardeners, under the direction of Sister Cecilia, have green thumbs for sure.  Veggies can be found tucked away in various nooks around our lush campus courtyards. Residents enjoy pruning or admiring, as the spirit moves them.

Our Resident Gardeners

Our Care Center residents plant and tend tomatoes, blueberries, strawberries, lettuce, kale, beans – a cornucopia of veggies planted in easy to reach beds.

Framed by rose plants, this lovely space within the Care Center is a favorite in our assisted living community.

Stop to smell the roses

Resident tending to Roses in 2016

We always stop to smell the roses here at Nazareth House.  Our gardens include scores of roses in every color imaginable, blooming March to November.  Begonias, hydrangeas, and impatiens fill in between, and lovely hanging baskets line the walkways.

Sister Cecilia plants tomatoes and peppers for all to enjoy in the kitchen’s summer salads. Assisted living residents sit out among the gardens year-round, or admire them from our many picture windows.
