MHCO opens Willow Ridge with day-long program
If home is where the hearth is, Mennonite Home Communities of Ohio (MHCO) warmed the hearth on Oct. 14. MHCO dedicated its Green House Homes located at Willow Ridge, directly across the road from Maple Crest Senior Living Communities.
The day-long celebration includes a visit from Dr. Bill Thomas of Ithaca, New York, founder of the Green House Project. Willow Ridge is the first Green House Homes in Ohio.
Attached are videos of the day (more videos to come), photos and literature explaining the project.
