When we’ve lost a man who held a special place in our lives, Father’s Day can bring a wave of emotions, reminders of how deeply we miss them, how much we loved them, and how their influence still touches our lives. Join Big Bend Hospice grief counselors and others who are navigating the loss of a father, grandfather, uncle, son, or other important man for this workshop.

Join us Tuesday, June 10 from 6:00 – 7:30 pm at Big Bend Hospice for this Father’s Day Grief Support Workshop.

Join Big Bend Hospice on Thursday, May 15 at 6:00 pm for a magical evening of food, music, and fun in the stunning gardens of Tallahassee Nurseries!

Oak Tree Treasures is more than just a store— it exemplifies our mission of ensuring that every family has access to the highest quality hospice care, regardless of financial barriers. All proceeds from the store will directly support our hospice services and therapeutic programs, helping us bring comfort and dignity to families during life’s most challenging moments.
