Ribbon Cutting - Fig Garden Retirement

The Greater Fresno Area Chamber of Commerce Ambassadors had the pleasure of providing a Ribbon Cutting for the beautiful Fig Garden Holiday Retirement Community located at 6035 N. Marks Avenue in Fresno. The Fig Garden community has been serving Fresno for over 20 years and there are also over 300 other locations across the United States and Canada. The Ambassadors had the honor of receiving a tour of the facility and were so amazed at all the wonderful amenities including a full service kitchen, chapel, gym, beauty salon, library, game room and so much more! With all the wonderful services, Fig Garden is definitely a community that is able to meet all of their resident’s needs and desires, all within a few steps of their rooms. In addition, I had the pleasure to talk with one of the managers, Frank Mazon, who shared with me even more of the services they offer that sets them apart. I was happy to learn that they offer month to month all inclusive rent, an extremely innovative travel program and that there are two management teams who live on site so they are always readily available!
