If you haven’t visited the Woodshop at The Arbordale, you’re missing one of the community’s hidden gems! 🪵🔨

Our Woodshop is a place where creativity and craftsmanship come to life. Whether you’re an experienced woodworker or just enjoy tinkering and learning something new, the shop offers a welcoming space to build, sand, shape, and create alongside friends. From small keepsakes to larger projects, there’s always something inspiring in the works.

We are extra lucky to have our own Resident Woodworker who shares his gifts and finished projects with our community. Even more, as a retired Industrial Arts teacher, he is eager to teach others! (You can retire from teaching but you can't retire from being a teacher at heart!)

The Arbordale Team is excited—and proud—to announce that we, along with the entire Transforming Age network, have once again achieved Great Place to Work® certification! The trust survey and certification process is rigorous, making this recognition a true honor. While meaningful, it comes as no surprise given the dedication and steadfast commitment our organization shows in living out its Culture of Excellence© every day.

We believe that a Great Place to Work builds and supports a dedicated, caring team—and that team, in turn, helps create a great place to live.
