The Milestones Congregate Meal program at Autumn Heights is available to anyone 60 or older, including Autumn Heights residents. Meals are available on a contribution basis. 

The congregate meal program is much like a family gathering together for a meal. It is a delicious place to eat, and a great place to learn about nutrition and healthy lifestyle practices. Each day we are not just feeding the body, we are feeding our natural need for socialization and friendship. Special programs are offered several times throughout the year.

Each meal is nutritionally well balanced and monthly menus will help you to better choose which days you would like to join us (and we would like to see you every day!). To make your reservation, please call Joyce between 9:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. at 319-753-2675, on the day before you plan to eat with us. We look forward to serving you.
