PROGRAMS & ACTIVITIES
Through learning and inclusion one can become truly enriched in the process.
THE POWER OF INCLUSION
Being out and about in the community helps keep us healthy and happy from events to just meeting folks.
THE POWER OF LEARNING
Education opens eyes to see another world beyond our own. The new-found knowledge opens doors to discovery and exploration of new jobs and opportunities. It helps make better choices in life, to voice opinions, desires, hopes and dreams.
Technology, computers & apps are essential tools in
bringing more joy in learning just about anything from assisting in everyday lifeskills, and facilitating tasks to communication skills.

THE POWER OF HEALTHY NUTRITION AND LIFESTYLE
We learn to eat a variety of healthy dishes from many countries around the world. Why? It not only boosts a desire to embrace other people's culture and their differences but it also cultivates healthy habits. The visually appealing presentations nourish and improve our quality of life. The variety of nutrition intake (with medicinal properties) helps prevent or aid in recovery from an illness or injury. Our daily baking and cooking includes dishes that are gluten-free, vegan and keto.
From discussing the menu for the day, writing the grocery list and grocery shopping. Learning to read the labels and scanning the groceries and paying using the credit card machine.
Our young adults learned that a very cold temperature could damage our plants so we brought them in under the LED light. After many weeks in the warm weather during April and May until last Friday May 20, 2022, these cantaloupes seeds grew out of the rich soil we composted since last year. We threw away the seeds into the compost and never thought they would sprout like this, what a surprise! Now, we can't wait to see them climb on trellis and bear fruits (hopefully). This will be an exciting journey to see. Stay tuned.
Last week, they were 2 feet tall and today, June 13, 2022, they stand 3ft tall with leaves 15 inches long. Why the leaves grow so healthy? perhaps using dishwater with lots of oil residues to water our plants besides composted soil?
Since we have more plants than we need (50+) we are happy to share with families with autism.
So, contact us here, first come first serve (bring a pot with at least 15inch tall)
UPDATED: July 23, 2022 -- today they stand about 6 ft 1/2 tall. Photos coming soon.

Mounting the trellis is learning solving problem skills. The young adults are very proud to see what they could do and would say "the plants are growing!"
Seven ft and 1/2 tall and still indeterminately growing.
