With summer in the near future, our residents are gearing up for a season of fresh air, growing food, and getting to know their neighbors. The 2020 growing season pilot project at Windridge Apartments and Westminster Meadows Senior Living demonstrated that residents of all ages enjoy the many benefits of gardening such as nutrient dense food, learning new cooking skills, spending times outdoors, and physical exercise.
Eenhoorn’s sustainability initiative has expanded to include our support of The Arbor Day Foundation. A portion of every application fee from our Michigan properties will be donated to help plant new trees.
Eenhoorn, a Grand Rapids based real estate investment and property management company, has proven that a West Michigan approach to business and values is welcome in places like Miami Beach. Eenhoorn acquired another four garden-level apartment communities, with 80 units, making it one of Miami Beach’s largest property management companies.
It is Eenhoorn’s on-going commitment to satisfy our residents by setting new standards for superior services, to provide our co-workers a creative and challenging work environment, and to reward our investors by enhancing the value of our properties.
Eenhoorn’s community garden initiative was a success! Eenhoorn’s Community “Sharing Garden” brings food and so much more to residents. The Summer of 2020 was spent gathering growers of all ages and experience levels at Windridge Apartments and Westminster Meadows for a season of productive, organic gardening.
In addition to the obvious goals of meeting resident needs, another primary goal for Eenhoorn is to bolster our efforts to operate with sustainability in mind. By administering this food bank program on site, we are eliminating large amounts of food waste in the process of serving our residents.
Residents of two Grand Rapids apartment communities managed by Eenhoorn will be able to spend the 2020 summer season outdoors growing their own food as part of a pilot project to increase sustainability efforts.
