📸We had such a fun visit from the High School photography class! Students taught residents about cameras, helped them take photos, and even set up an amazing portrait studio with fun props, including the famous fish hat!
Our residents had an incredible time laughing, posing, and making memories. We’re so grateful for experiences like this that bring so much joy, laughter, and connection to our community! ❤️

Alison Derderian, a passionate beekeeper, recently visited Methuen Village and created quite the buzz with her wonderful presentation about bees, honey, and the art of beekeeping. She shared how her love for bees began alongside her father, who was also a beekeeper, and it was truly heartwarming to hear the special memories and passion behind her journey.
Residents were fascinated as they explored a real hive setup and viewed honeycomb up close, making the experience both educational and unforgettable. The sweet highlight of the day was tasting a variety of delicious honeys and we even had a sampling of mead! 🍯✨
To top it all off, Ali surprised everyone with thoughtful goody bags filled with honey candies, which brought so many smiles to our residents’ faces. It was a day full of learning, laughter, and sweet moments that everyone will treasure.
A huge thank-you to Ali for sharing her time, knowledge, and love for bees with us. We’re so grateful she could bee part of our community for the day! 🐝💛🍯
Thank you so much, Ali, for sharing your knowledge, stories, passion, and love of bees with us! 🐝✨
