Resthaven Celebrates Ribbon Cutting for The Farmstead
On the morning of Wednesday, October 3rd, EV Construction team members gathered with the Resthaven staff, board, West Coast Chamber, and countless community members for the ribbon cutting of The Farmstead.
The Farmstead was born out of Resthaven’s understanding that seniors are aging differently: They desire and expect a vibrant and active lifestyle filled with enrichment, vitality, and community.
“Thanks to the commitment and support from the Holland community and Resthaven’s board of trustees, we’ve been able to design and implement practical and appealing solutions to serve today’s seniors,” says Deedre Schuckert, President and CEO of Resthaven. “As a mission-driven, not-for-profit senior living organization, Resthaven is dedicated to listening to seniors and their families and walking alongside them to meet their current and future needs.”
With The Farmstead, Resthaven addresses current realities by providing a lively, welcoming space where seniors can enjoy freedom and independence, build a social circle, take part in classes and events, and have access to a full continuum of healthcare and services if their needs change.
This new offering is in alignment with Resthaven’s 80 years of firsthand experience caring for and supporting seniors and witnessing a shift in how this new generation envisions their retirement years. As residents have begun moving into The Farmstead, it’s become evident why this space is a welcome alternative to traditional senior living offerings. In addition to the host of amenities, such as fitness and educational programs, communal gathering spaces, and access to arts, entertainment, education, culture, and dining, a real sense of community is unfolding—in just the first few weeks.
“We are excited to welcome residents to The Farmstead and celebrate this milestone with our community,” says Schuckert. “This new campus represents our continued commitment to providing innovative and compassionate care that enhances the lives of seniors in Holland.”
EV Construction is proud to be the construction partner for The Farmstead by Resthaven. On the afternoon of Wednesday, October 3rd, EV hosted a special open house and self-guided tour of The Farmstead for our trade partners and their families. Not only were there a lot of trade partners working on The Farmstead over the past two years, many of them worked at the job site for over a year. This open house gave the opportunity to our employees and trade partners to show their loved ones what they have been working on for the last couple of years.
