What is New?
We would love your help!
HVH is creating a facility cookbook! Our goal is to fill it full of favourite recipes from our residents, residents’ families, staff and volunteers. We will have a nutrition student from Acadia University here this summer who will be working on gathering all the recipes and formatting the cookbook.
Cookbooks will be sold to the community once complete and profits used
towards something for our residents.
We are asking each family to please submit at least one recipe that is a family favourite or tradition in their household. Please feel free to give a variety such as breads, desserts, main meals, etc. We would like to have all recipes by the end of July.  Thank you for your support!

Submissions can be made to Nutrition Co-op Student Robin McLennan at rmclennan@hvh.ca or at the dietary office located on the main floor.

Our annual Painted Lady Butterfly project will commence again this spring. We anticipate receiving our Painted Lady caterpillars during the last week of May.
