My wife Katie and I have been at Evergreen Woods for about a year and a half now, and there is something here for everyone! For example, I have joined the Evergreen Woods Explorers, a twice monthly hiking group that visits nearby Connecticut parks which have hiking trails, some of which are near lakes, rivers, or waterfalls. This past Friday, our group added a new resident who is blind. Two of our dedicated staff walked alongside this resident and assisted him, guiding him carefully step by step over sometimes even and sometimes uneven terrain. I was deeply impressed by the special caring devoted to this new resident as we traversed the perimeter of Wintergreen Lake in Hamden for probably about a mile and a half. An Evergreen Woods van safely drove our Evergreen Woods Explorers group from North Branford to Hamden and back on the Friday afternoon of Labor Day Weekend. I was so positively impressed with our caring staff!

My husband, Robert, and I moved to Evergreen Woods 2 years ago. We have thoroughly enjoyed living in this joyful, welcoming community (even through the pandemic and its safeguards). The common lounge spaces, pool, fitness center, dining room and auditorium are well appointed and a great source for community activity. The grounds are beautifully landscaped and the wooded walking trails are a source of joy for us. Our apartment is spacious and light-filled, and it is a pleasure to come home to. There are plenty of activities designed to support our physical, mental, and social needs. In addition, the food is delicious and varied. We would highly recommend a visit here. Gratefully, Judith Taylor

We could not have chosen a more perfect home/community for our parents. The Independent Living apartments are lovely and all of the staff are warm and welcoming as are the residents! The private setting in NorthBranford is peaceful and EW is in a great location, near many great towns on the shoreline. The dining room, meals and amenities are first rate. The caring and dedicated staff in the Health Center are absolutely wonderful and give peace of mind should a stay be necessary.

The Clubhouse dining program uses a menu system like you would see in any fine dining restaurant. There are regularly over 12 entrées on the Clubhouse dining menu plus daily specials, prepared by our executive chef. Members are allotted flexible dining dollars each month to spend on dining and the dollars roll throughout the year. Dining in Care Services features the same great food, fantastic service and again, lots of options. One perk of living in our assisted living is the ANYTIME menu. Our residents can find a great meal anytime they are ready to eat. We work on their schedule instead of our residents working on ours. Menus throughout the community also include our wellness menu options. These entrees are prepared to meet the American Heart Association’s criteria.

Evergreen Woods was founded to help people live Longer, Healthier, Happier lives. We want people to age in place and be able to stay in their home, whether an apartment or a cottage home, without having to go to institutional care. Our goal is to help our Members stay involved and we do this through our wellness programs, our excellent dining services, our curated social calendars and by providing a community where they feel secure surrounded by friends. This gives them the freedom to do more things, go more places, spend more time with family, visit more with friends and just generally, live a better life.
