The sights, sounds, and smells of fall filled the air at Watercrest Santa Rosa Beach, engaging residents, associates and guests in a multisensory experience to enliven the senses. Family and friends gathered at the popular Sunday brunch to enjoy the culinary delights of savory pot roast, homemade pumpkin spice cakes, and steamy caramel apple cider in a warm and festive atmosphere.
The Harvest Festival drew a large crowd thanks to the fantastic vendors from the Freeport Farmers Market and treats provided by the Watercrest culinary team and community partners Gentiva Hospice, Action Therapy, Amedisys Home Health, and Vitas Hospice. Residents and guests enjoyed an afternoon of sweet treats along with laugher, live music and dancing.
