In September, Zoosiab was able to resume its monthly group sessions, bringing Chico and Oroville participants together to socialize and reconnect after a two-month break. Participants engaged in light physical activities, including simple arm and leg stretches, to prepare for a walk to the Zoosiab garden.
Participants enjoyed visiting the garden, taking photos with the rice field, and harvesting fresh crops to take home. These activities provided opportunities for elders to build stronger relationships, interact with one another, and strengthen their social connections. By encouraging physical activity and social engagement, the group session helped promote emotional well-being and support the mental health of Zoosiab participants.
