Reducing Your Carbon Footprint-5



I hope that this series is giving you some food for thought regarding the things we can easily do to reduce our carbon footprint and preserve this planet for our children and our children’s children.

  Speaking of food…..Grow your own food to reduce your carbon footprint as well as to help your budget.  Doesn’t get any greener, fresher, or more nutritious than this!  If you have a brown thumb and just cannot grow anything, then you need to buy local. 

  There are local farmers that you can support at the farm or at the local Farmer’s Markets.  We are lucky to have a Farmer’s Market located at the Southern Lanes parking lot every Friday 3-6pm during the late Spring, Summer, and early Fall.  This is such a great resource for our city—take advantage of it!

   Neltner’s Farm is located in Camp Springs and they have home grown produce at the farm stand and they go to the Farmer’s Market as well.  Why spend money to buy produce grown hundreds or thousands of miles away, when you can get fresh from the farm veggies grown locally?  To me it is a no brainer!  Buy Local!  It helps the environment, it helps your family’s nutrition, and it helps your local farmers.  Such an easy way to reduce your carbon footprint!

Wesley Chapel Fundraiser April 5th 7pm

 
There is a group in place that is collecting donations to build a memorial where the old Wesley Chapel Church used to stand. The group is going to hold a benefit at the Alexandria Community Center where there will be music provided by 12 mile's own Diamond Head Mountain as well as drinks, snacks, and raffles. As some of you may know the church was devastated by the tornado of March 2, 2012. If you are from or have traveled around the 12 mile area you know this is an iconic structure. They are hoping to reach their goal so they can restore some of the history back to the area so any and every support is much appreciated. Thank you very much and we hope to see you there.
 
  Please stop by and support this wonderful event and help preserve our local history!

Opening Day!


   It is that time of the year, the start of baseball season!  And we all know that means an almost holiday in the Greater Cincinnati area!

   You can get a free Chic-fil-A chicken sandwich at area stores if you are wearing official Reds gear!  Don your Reds apparel and get your free sandwich! 

   Remember the Opening Day Parade starts today at noon, so downtown traffic will be affected.

Enjoy!
