Learn how to garden for your health at health department program at Mohawk Community Library

Spring is officially here, and Wyandot County Public Health is ready to celebrate with a program on gardening at 6 p.m. April 21 at the Mohawk Community Library.

Gardening supports a healthy mind and body with opportunities for exercise and relaxation, fresh air, vitamin D, and a chance to grow healthy foods on your own.

The health department’s gardening committee, which helps maintain the community garden on the corner of Hicks Street and South Sandusky Avenue in Upper Sandusky, will discuss tips and tricks for growing healthy foods at home and in community spaces. Garden committee members that will be speaking are Molly Owens, who also serves in the environmental health division, and Hanna Fox who serves in both the WIC (Women, Infants, Children) and vital statistics divisions.

Don’t miss this exciting opportunity to learn about the best ways to plan for and start your own garden to grow fresh food for your family.
