What came first... 🤔🐣

Our Life Skills Coach, Coriann, is constantly using the world around us to teach residents essential skills like patience, responsibility, and compassion.

This afternoon was spent setting up our incubator, where we labeled and placed 6 chicken eggs. Over the next three weeks, we'll watch the incubator turn and the eggshells soften -- preparing us for the miracle of life.

Stay tuned for updates on these babies! 🥚

Independence Landing residents were proud to welcome WWII, Korean, and Vietnam War veterans home from this year’s Honor Flight Tallahassee. ✈️

Honor Flight Tallahassee salutes veterans by providing them with a free flight to Washington, D.C., giving them the opportunity to visit the various monuments and memorials raised in their honor. We are thrilled to have been a part of this year’s tribute. 💛

“Every canvas is a journey all its own” - Helen Frankenthaler

Our staff enjoyed an afternoon together at Brush & Palette Tallahassee () where we put our artistic skills to the test. 🖌️ It was such a satisfying experience to watch everyone’s paintings come together, and reminded us all to slow down and trust the process in our own lives.

To make the day even better, we were treated to a delicious lunch from Jeri's Love on a Plate ()! The stuffed mushrooms and mini crab cakes were all the rage. 😋

This afternoon would not have been possible without our incredible Executive Director, Barby, who put this outing together for us. She adds color into each of our lives and we are so grateful to work alongside her. 🫶

Swipe to see the expectation vs. reality. 🤣

We were honored to be a part of this year’s annual Big Bend Hospice Foundation Spring Fling at Tallahassee Nurseries! 🪻🤩🌷

Our Marketing Coordinator, Page, brought two of our resident employees from The Press Cafe TLH to hand out over 300 bags of our House-Made Coffee Toffee and Honey Crunch Candy, and we fully ran out before the night was over! We’re so grateful for opportunities like these which allow us to deepen our connection to the Tallahassee community while also spreading the word about Independence Landing.

Thank you to everyone who made this night such an incredible time for our residents! Special shoutout to Alicia Crew, IL donor and supporter, for connecting us to this event. It was lovely meeting so many kind faces. 💚

"A mother's love for her child is like nothing else in the world. It knows no law, no pity. It dares all things and crushes down remorselessly all that stands in its path." - Agatha Christie

Happy Mother's Day to all of our incredible resident moms! 💐

Independence Landing would not exist without the mothers who fought tirelessly to ensure their children would have a place to call home after they're gone. You are the reason our community is vibrant, joyful, and full of life. We celebrate you not just today, but every day -- for your strength, kindness, and support inspire us evermore. 💚
