Spring Time At FCS
I love spring time at FCS! It is enjoyable because we are located within walking distance to the park, farmers market, green way and shops. This gives us many of opportunities to go on little adventures.
Its easy to tell someone “Eat vegetables! Go on walks!” It’s much more effective, however, to go on the walks together.
Today was an excellent example of doing instead of telling. Staff and clients walked to the local farmers market together and talked about healthy eating choices. We were able to discuss weekend menu planning and try to think of creative new recipes. It was a fantastic learning experience about being healthy without the usual nagging.
It was delightful to finally be able to enjoy Charlotte after being cooped up for the winter, and the residents and staff at FCS all agree.
