Episode Description
What happens when dementia care meets life on the farm? In this episode of Third Age Design, Lori Pinkerton-Rolet talks with Rebekah Churchyard, founder of Green Care Farms - Canada’s first dementia day program on a working farm. Discover how alpacas, goats, gardening, and the great outdoors bring joy, connection, and a renewed sense of purpose to participants. Rooted in biophilic design and inspired by personal experience, this innovative model is changing lives.
And there are aspects of this programme which translate to other settings, so have a listen and prepare to be inspired!
