A beautiful fall day

A beautiful fall day spent with some very special volunteers!

Our longtime friends from Pine Tree Garden Club recently joined A.G. Rhodes DeKalb elders to plant fall annuals through our Horticultural Therapy program.

This wonderful group has been volunteering with us for years, generously sharing their time and love of gardening. We're grateful for their continued friendship and dedication to our elders and community.

Thank you, Pine Tree Garden Club!

We're proud to congratulate two outstanding A.G. Rhodes care partners who recently received top honors from the Georgia Health Care Association:

⭐Vanissa Johnson – Activity Director of the Year
⭐Martha Mokgoatsane – CNA of the Year

Both Vanissa and Martha have dedicated decades of service to A.G. Rhodes, making a lasting difference in the lives of the elders we serve. We're thrilled to see their hard work and commitment recognized statewide!
