Regardless of age, we all need to eat. But those groceries can be heavy, and the store can be busy and loud. Or you might not have time for it amidst all your other appointments and obligations. So let us shop on your behalf by joining our grocery program. Our members can phone or e-mail us on Monday and provide us with a detailed shopping list and a store to go to. We will buy what you need and deliver it to you. We can even buy non-food items like yarn or cutlery. And you’re not obligated to order every week. Some people even only order once to get that item from a store that’s too far from home. But slots are limited (another reason why our volunteers are so important) so contact us for more information.
We’re Hiring!
We have several positions available in our Organization including Housekeeping, Yard Work and Grocery Delivery. If you enjoy working with Seniors and making a difference in their lives please contact us today.
Yardwork Services
Services include lawn cutting, fall cleanup of leaves, gardening, flower beds and weeding. As with all of our services we can provide as much or as little based on what your needs are. We can also do small hedge trimming and pruning. As always if cost is a barrier we will work with you to overcome that barrier. During spring and fall we can also do outside window cleaning and eaves cleaning as well.

What Causes Hearing Loss?
Hearing loss may be a result of environment, aging, health factors, or a congenital condition. The causes of hearing loss include: *Loud noises. Loud noises can overwork hair cells in the ear, causing irreversible damage. *Age-related factors. Presbycusis, is a natural by-product of aging and is caused by changes in our ears as we age. *Health factors. A variety of health factors can impact hearing. *Ototoxic medications. Some medicines can cause ototoxic hearing loss. *Congenital condition. Hearing loss is the most common congenital condition in Canada. If you suspect hearing loss, the hearing professionals at Alto Hearing are here to support you.
Delightful Food Tip: Broth for Another Day
We’ve all been there—buying bulk liquid broth on a super sale only to realize it expires in just a couple of days. But fear not! Instead of making a colossal amount of soup or engaging in a messy water balloon battle, freeze that broth for later use. However, a word of caution: don’t freeze it directly in the cartons. Liquid expands when frozen, leading to bursts. Plus, the wax lining may affect the taste. Pour the broth into freezer-safe containers, filling them ¾ full, and enjoy 2-3 months of flavorful broth to elevate your culinary adventures. Stay tuned for next month’s revelation about the delightful world of wontons!
