We enjoyed a double header of Kitchen Crew this week! 👩‍🍳🔪

On Thursday we made some deeeeeelicious cornmeal blueberry muffins, and our bakers were on point as always.🧁

Then yesterday we were joined by our good friend Karen from Mrs. Brake's Spices Etc. ! She's here to teach our crew some tasty recipes for nutritious dinners they can make at home. This week they made a buttery pasta with fresh squash and zucchini from the garden, plus a Hawaiian fruit salad for dessert! 🍝

Great work as always Kitchen Crew!👨‍🍳

September is Fall Prevention Awareness Month.

🧠Falls are the leading cause of brain injury so it's important to take small preventative measures wherever we can.

👤Recognize your risk factors, if you're elderly, have mobility issues, or have an existing TBI, you're at an increased risk of having a fall.

🏋️‍♀️Practice a strength and balance routine of your choosing, or as prescribed by a doctor. Core and leg strength can make the difference between falling, and catching yourself.

👀Look for loose rugs, exposed nails, uneven floors, and other tripping hazards in your home. Remove or cover them as possible.

🧑‍🦯‍There's no shame in carrying a cane, or using other tools to keep yourself safe. A cane can be a game changer for mobility, and allow you to walk around without living in fear.

📱🤳If all else fails, have a back up plan. It can be as simple as ALWAYS carrying your phone, or if you know your risk is high enough consider signing up for a service like Life Alert, or asking your doctor for recommendations.

Tuesday is practice day for our rock band, The Brave Notes! 🎶

Allen, Bridget, Chris, Mandy, Pablo, and Sebastian all work so hard to grow as a band. It's not just about being the best musicians they can be, but coming together to make something special. Pablo, the bassist, made this picture for his friends. He doesn't just keep the groove, he also sets the tone for every practice and concert! 🎸

We're here at the Farmington NY Farm Market from 3 to 6 today selling sugar cookie bars, farm fresh produce, and tons of handmade crafts!

The cookie bars were made by our Kitchen Crew with love!

The produce was all grown on our care farm!

Stop by our table and say hello Farmington friends!

Work is progressing nicely on our farm pavilion! The stone has been laid, and concrete has been partially poured. 👷

Thank you to the The Marilyn Lichtman Foundation for covering the cost of the stone and the Lisk Morris Foundation for partial funding for the concrete! Finally thank you to all of you generous supporters who helped us close the gap and fully fund our pavilion construction project! Thanks to all of you we'll have a beautiful event space in the near future, that will be an investment in the future of Bridges for Brain Injury!

Kitchen Crew has already become a favorite activity for our members and staff! 👩‍🍳

Our aspiring chef members have the opportunity to work together in our kitchen, making tasty treats with their friends! By practicing ServSafe food preparation and handling everyone learns the dos and don't of the kitchen. Whether they're looking to reenter the work force, or just want to be responsible when cooking at home this is THE way to pick up those skills, while practicing teamwork! We'll be selling some of our baked goods made with love this Thursday at the Farmington Farmer's Market. (Assuming we don't eat them all ourselves. 😋)
