Another way to get ready for spring – at least mentally – is to think about what you will need to do if you unexpectedly cross paths with a bear on a trail, or potentially even in your own backyard! Bears will soon be coming out of hibernation, so read “It’s a Bear!” for expert advice from the Park Service and other experts on how to handle such an encounter.

Thank you so much for joining us this issue. Our next issue that will arrive right before Easter will be continuing our 2023 focus on different areas of health. For that issue, the health focus will specifically be autism. So until we see you again, enjoy the start of spring!

Do you have broken A/C or dehumidifiers that you don't want to pay to have removed? If so, please call 610-737-5119 to schedule a free pick-up and removal. Items must be easily accessible. (10/3/19)

We also take a look at the benefits of a deep spring cleaning, as well as some other spring projects you might not initially think about. Spring projects are not all filter replacements and window cleanings. Read “Spring Projects and Spring Cleaning” for all the details.

Back to gardening, we are going to take a close look at pollinator-friendly gardens. Obviously, we need pollinators – bees, butterflies and other beneficial insects – to help pollinate our gardens for healthy and bountiful crops. In “Creating a Pollinator Garden” we look at how you can create one – no matter how large or small your garden, and some of the plants you might enjoy using in your pollinator sanctuary.
