Farming Reminiscing

27 August 2024

On a cool afternoon in August, we had a visit from Jan.

Jan brings in a variety of items for our residents to reminisce with, and today she brought farming equipment and clothes. In the picture, you can see our companion Ruth wearing a farmer’s outfit and holding the milk bottles that were once used for milk deliveries. Jan has a farming background, and many of the items she brought were her own, which meant she had many stories to share. Everyone seemed fascinated by the objects and the stories she told us.

Some of our residents recognised some of the items, having lived or worked on a farm themselves, and they had many stories of their own to share. We are all looking forward to seeing what Jan brings next time!
