by Natalie 06 Jun '23

06 Jun '23

Hello neighbors! Your local primary care doc here with another fun upcoming cooking workshop. If we haven’t met, I opened up a wellness studio --Rebel Wellness (www.rebelsinwellness.com) -- in January on South Highland Avenue. We have personal training, group fitness, yoga, and a plant-based teaching kitchen where I lead culinary medicine workshops. Our next #culinarymedicine workshop at the studio is this Saturday June 10th from 4-6 pm. Join me and Blake Watterworth, mental health therapist, for our fermented foods workshop. we will make and enjoy a plant-based dinner with dessert and drinks, make 2 types of fermented foods for you to take home, and learn about the ins and outs of gut health and mental health. I'd love to meet some new faces! Tickets are $35 and we still have some spots available. Check out the event here: https://www.union.fit/events/rebel-wellness-blake-watterworth-x-rebel-welln… Sincerely, Natalie Gentile, MD

Wall stones for sale
by Robert Fallon 06 Jun '23

06 Jun '23

Hi Neighbor! I just finished building a raised garden bed with quality, natural colonial wallstone. There are many stones I did not use and they’re yours for $1 per small stone or $2 per large stone. Price negotiable. I would attach photos but my post hasn’t gone through three or four times when I’ve done so—so email me and I’ll send you photos. Shaped for stacking, the stones are basically flat and can also be used as flagstone. -Rob Fallon ------------- Robert Fallon

ugh, those enormous trees they just removed in the park :(
by nancy gohring 06 Jun '23

06 Jun '23

I am so disappointed that PWSA removed at least five enormous trees in the park, along Bunkerhill. When a guy from PWSA was presenting information about this work at an HPCC meeting a while back, I specifically asked about the impact to trees and he led us to believe that it was possible none would have to be removed. I guess this is just a general gripe. I plan to drop a note to PWSA and urge them to do more than a one to one replacement. Some of those trees had to have been at least 100 years old and you can't replace one of those with a tiny sapling.

Hi neighbors! Our five year old misplaced his blue glasses somewhere on yard sale day while he was walking around. If you come across a pair of bifocal blue glasses, kind of adult style sturdy frames, could you let me know?? Thank you! Mac

Yes, this is again another collection, just after one we did a week ago !!! This one is focused on Non-perishable foods, as the Food Pantry is really in short supply. The last drive was focused on NRP’s Trauma Response Efforts, and we had a good response for that, but lacked getting the regular Food Items. This collection will be focused on that, so if you can find it in your hearts to help out, we will be making another collection next week on Wednesday, 07 JUN 23, starting at 9:00 AM. Just email us your actual address to: mike(a)divehards.com<mailto:mike@divehards.com>, to let us know what to expect to pick up (as well as, what not to take off your porches !!!), and we will get back to you. PLEASE MAKE SURE that there is a Phone Number, so that we can reach you during collection times, should there be any questions. If you are interested in NRP’s Impact and Programs, please clink on the below links: https://neighborhoodresilience.org/about/vision/ https://neighborhoodresilience.org/about/impact/ In advance, thank you for your consideration, and should you have an questions, please call the below number.

We are again letting our neighborhood know that we, Mike and Brigette Nadler, will be driving the neighborhood picking up for the monthly NRP (Formally FOCUS) Collection this coming Wednesday, 24 MAY 23. We will be around the neighborhood starting at 9:00 AM that morning, and we are actually passing along their request for specific items below, in addition to the regular non-perishable food to restock their pantry, as their stock is very low, as well as useable Clothing that is clean and sorted. [https://mcusercontent.com/4fc5bdf344d7e0fec13e7efe2/images/14efa958-071a-36…] "Trauma teddies are essential to our trauma response efforts. Firstly, giving children a comfort item such as a teddy bear is a great way to make them feel safe enough to open up and engage with us. Trauma teddies also help us to reach parents and adults who otherwise may be reluctant to open up about their experience. Seeing a child smiling and playing with a trauma teddy given by our team makes them more likely to trust us and engage in conversation or accept a referral for further support." - Dan Emerick, Trauma Response Team Program Manager Please consider donating any of the following: * New or gently used teddy bears (small to medium sized) * Cases of smaller water bottles * Juice Boxes (apple or orange) * Capri Sun or other coolaid pouches * Keurig K-Cups * Ground coffee * Coffee filters * Easy Mac - single serving packs of mac & cheese * Ramen noodles (beef, chicken, shrimp) Canned soup (ideally pop-top - but can be can-opener style) Just email us your actual address to: mike(a)divehards.com<mailto:mike@divehards.com>, to let us know what to expect to pick up (as well as, what not to take off your porches !!!), and we will get back to you.
