Garden Gourmet

At Pleasant Valley, we give our residents the rewarding gift of garden to gourmet, which is our version of the farm to table philosophy.

Our staff and residents love to maintain a robust garden year-round, located on our grounds just off the back patio. We plant and grow seasonal fruits and vegetables in the community garden. Once ripe, they’re hand-picked then utilized in recipes in our kitchen.

The practice of gardening can be therapeutic and refreshing for the mind and spirit of our residents — especially when they’re busy coaxing seeds into growth or engaging in a fierce pruning session. Whether it’s tending to fresh herbs, like basil, on the window sill, planting a lemon tree, or plucking a perfectly sweet summer tomato, we encourage a garden to table lifestyle, providing the opportunity for a truly delicious experience.
