Welcome to Greenwoods Eldercare Society

The Greenwoods Eldercare Society is a not-for-profit organization that owns and manages residential care facilities on behalf of the residents of Southern Gulf Islands of BC. Learn more..

We acknowledge with gratitude that Greenwoods is on the ancestral and unceded traditional land of the Hul’qumi’num and SENĆOŦEN speaking peoples.


On June 4, 1979 Greenwoods opened its doors and welcomed elders to a new place built just for them, where they would receive the high quality care they needed right here at home on Salt Spring! This year our 47th birthday wish is to enhance and secure our outdoor spaces for the safety and enjoyment of our residents. Will you give us the gift of your help?  Please click here to learn more and donate today!
