Residents and staff gathered to celebrate with an End of Summer BBQ today! Our dining staff provided a wonderful spread of burgers, veggie burgers, watermelon, potato salad, green salad and peach pie. A couple residents surprised us with some homemade apple crisp, apple pie, grape juice and chocolate zuchini cake. The apples, grapes and zuchini were all grown right here at Friends House! We enjoyed our lunch out on the lobby patio with live music and great conversation. If you're looking for an active, welcoming community, please reach out to inquire about joining the waitlist.

Sundays at Friends House are a day to explore all that Sonoma County has to offer. Residents suggest different places and locations that they would like to see and our driver arranges the trip for residents who are interested in going. They recently went to the Museum of Sonoma County to see the Bruce Johnson exhibit. Bruce Johnson is near and dear to Friends House as he built the resident thrift table that resides in our lobby, affectionately called Susan's Table. While Friends House residents are lucky enough to see his beautiful work daily, residents had fun seeing many of his other pieces at the exhibit.

Friends House gathered for a to enjoy the abundance of fresh summer produce that California gives us. Residents were able to sample local cheeses, enjoy fresh fruit and take home some local vegetables to cook with. With Friends House's over 100 fruit trees, residents took home some apples that were picked that day from our trees!

In honor of Culinary Arts Month, we are honored to highlight an incredible member of our dining team. Vicky Detlefsen has worked as Dining Services Manager at Friends House in Santa Rosa for 7 years but her connection to the community goes back much further. Before working at Friends House, she volunteered at the community since the 1990s, helping her grandmothers out at community events including the Day on the Green and Quaker Tea. When she was offered the opportunity to work at Friends House, she was excited by the chance to work at a place she already knew and loved.

There are a number of reasons why Vicky loves her job, including collaborating with residents on community events, having a part in different areas of the community and finding ways to surprise the residents with special meals and ingredients. She shares:
“What I love is giving the resident’s special food surprises. When we have events or an ingredient catches my eye, I want them to experience it in the best possible way. Surprises are part of a good life and good living and food has so many surprises you can bring to people.”

Thank you, Vicky for your dedication to creating community at Friends House through good food.
