We are happy to announce that we are now taking reservations for garden spots at the new Glencoe Community Gardens site located at 525 Baxter Ave North in Glencoe. This is a collaboration between Together We are Glencoe and the City of Glencoe.

Plots are $20 a plot and must be reserved by May 22, 2024.

Reserve a spot here: https://nowopen.wixsite.com/glencoemngardens

The community plots provide gardeners the opportunity to meet new people, share information and harvest one’s own produce.
The garden plots will be tilled, staked, and ready for planting by the end of May 2024.

Further questions can be directed at this time to Kerry Ward at 320-864-1512 or via email at [email protected]

Bike to School Day is May 8th an annual international event that encourages children to bike to school.

Living close to school means that your child has the opportunity to walk or bike to school regularly, which provides many benefits. Children that walk or bike to school get more exercise, are healthier, and arrive to school ready to learn. Another added benefit of walking or biking to school is reduced traffic congestion, which also reduces pollution and provides cleaner air.

Does your child already bike to school? If so, that’s great! Encourage them to keep biking. If not, take the time to bike to school with your child one day, show them the safest route, and teach them safety tips while biking and crossing streets. This will give them the confidence to bike to school on their own or with friends or neighbors.

More fun resources can be found in the bingo and word puzzles or visiting the sites listed below.

Did you know, studies show that being outside in nature benefits our mental and physical health? It’s true! Green spaces support a healthy lifestyle, help us reduce stress, relax our busy minds, and are a great place to come together with friends and family.

•Stress can impact us all, and managing these emotions can be challenging. Daily movement is great to improve our mood, memory and learning! The next time you’re stressed, head to your local park or green space, enjoy the scenery, and tune into how it affects your mind, body and overall mood.

•Connecting through exercise is a great way to meet new friends, and researchers believe it actually extends your lifespan. Team sports or walking clubs is a fun way to try this out.

•Bring your own healthy snacks and have a picnic! This is a fun way to change up normal family meals and spend time outside.

•The outdoors is a great place for social connectedness. Whether it’s a walk around the lake or checking out a state park, bring along a buddy next time you go.

•Struggling to focus on the present moment? Try out Mindful walking to become more aware of your surroundings and yourself.
