News From Greece Historical Society Bicentennial Snapshots Bicentennial Snapshots is one of a variety of programs and projects planned by the Greece Historical Society to celebrate the Bicentennial of the Town of Greece. Bicentennial Snapshots made its debut on March 22 on the Greece Historical Society’s Facebook page and YouTube Channel.

Each Snapshot video is a brief look at a particular aspect of Greece history; over the course of the next year, we will cover people and events that comprise the vibrant history of Greece from its earliest days to the present.

A Legacy Deferred: The Architecture of Thomas W. Boyde, Jr. Tuesday, April 12, 2022, 7:00-8:30 p.m., Greece Public Library 2 Vince Tofany Blvd. 14612 REGISTRATION REQUIRED - Register at https://greecepubliclibrary.evanced.info/signup/EventDetails?EventId=10610&backT o=Calendar&startDate=2022/04/01 Architect Thomas W. Boyde, Jr., designed hundreds of buildings in the Rochester area that were instrumental in shaping the mid-century city and suburbs. The body of work of Rochester’s first African American architect has yet to be fully appreciated, as debates over the extent of his involvement in a handful of prominent projects have overshadowed his real contributions to the built environment. This presentation explores Boyde’s life and his prolific career, challenges in documenting the work of African American architects practicing in the mid-20th century,

and ways to bring new appreciation to the work of this supremely talented architect who left a remarkable legacy in the greater Rochester area.

Presenters are part of a team working with the Greece Historical Society to explore and document Boyde’s work.

Boosting Your Immune System with Quercetin

by Tami Raco Our immune system is the first line of defense against all disease, especially infectious disease. One nutrient that plays a particularly key role in our immune system’s ability to ward off viral infections is zinc. Research has shown that zinc deficiencies have been shown to impair immune function. The problem with taking zinc supplements is that it is insoluble and cannot easily enter the fatty part of the cells. To be effective zinc must enter all the way into the cell where viral replication occurs. There are supplements that function as Zinc ionophores and help the zinc penetrate the cell and be more useful in fighting viral illness.

Studies found that dietary plant polyphenols called quercetin helps increase zinc’s ability to enter the cell by being increasing the transportation of zinc through the cellular membrane. Quercetin is also a potent antiviral. It can also provide anti-inflammatory benefits, improve brain function, reduce blood pressure, help with allergies, and reduce cancer risks. When quercetin is combined with zinc it helps enhance the benefits of zinc’s role in fighting viral illness by allowing the zinc to be more soluble in the cells.

Quercetin is a naturally found compound in certain vegetables, fruit, tea, and wine. But to achieve the level to help better metabolize zinc it is easiest to acquire through supplements. The average American diet consumes less than 50 mg of quercetin daily. Ranges needed for optimum health benefits and better zinc absorption is 500-1000 mg per day. Quercetin supplements are available at most health stores. Although more expensive the most absorbable and bio available form of quercetin is quercetin phytosome. www.thewellnessministry.com

Landscape roses

by Kristina Gabalski

by Kristina Gabalski

Roses are a popular plant for many gardeners. They are the national flower of the United States and the official flower of New York State. There are challenges to growing beautiful roses in our area, but landscape roses are known for their ease of care, disease and pest resistance, and their ability to withstand frigid winters.

Here is information about the various kinds of landscape roses.

Ground cover roses typically are low-growing and will not exceed a height of three feet. Under the right conditions, they can spread to cover large areas or will droop over stone walls or down the edge of a bank. This type of rose needs minimal pruning. One outstanding ground cover rose is ‘The Fairy.’ It has double pink blooms about one inch in diameter and bright green Rosa rugosa is a very hardy foliage. ‘The Fairy’ has done amaz- landscape rose that works well ingly well in my garden with very in borders. Some varieties have little attention. It is vigorous and very brightly colored flowers.

Photo by Kristina Gabalski healthy, and I rarely see it attacked

by Japanese beetles that manage to ruin most of my other attempts at growing roses. During mild autumns, it has bloomed into December.

Shrub roses are great for creating hedges and also work well in large borders. Rosa rugosa is a group of very hardy shrub roses.

The crinkled leaves are disease resistant, and the colorful, fragrant, single blooms produce hips that provide interest into the fall. These roses are very easy to care for, although you may want to prune them back hard every few seasons. The hips can be used

for jellies and teas or even as pretty garnishes or in bouquets. You may need to control Japanese beetles on rugosas, however.

Climbing and rambling roses are spectacular but do need a bit more care. You will have to provide support for climbing roses, which might be an arbor, trellis, or fence pillar. Ramblers bloom profusely once each season and have slender canes with clusters of flowers. Ramblers can help to cover unsightly walls or fences.

If you grow shrub roses such as ‘Meidiland,’ or the newer easyto-grow cultivars like Knock Out, Rosa rugosa roses produce Carefree, and Morden, as well as bright hips, which have the David Austin series of English many uses. Photo by Krisroses, you may want to prune tina Galalski them between now and the end of March. Modern shrub roses feature lower maintenance, greater disease resistance, and increased winter hardiness, making them an attractive option.

It is best to prune these plants while they are still dormant.

You can identify living stems by the green color of the bark/stem.

Stems and branch tips that have died will be dark brown or black in color.

Shrub roses do not require hard pruning like many hybrid teas, and it is best to remove one-half to two-thirds of the plant’s height during early spring pruning to remove winter-killed branch tips and encourage the plant to initiate new growth on thick stems that will promote summer growth.

Do some thinning first to remove old, thick, woody stems in the center and increase air circulation. Remove dead, diseased, or damaged branches and then cut back by one-half to two-thirds any remaining tall stems. It is best to prune with hand pruners making individual cuts.

During the summer, you can deadhead stems as the flowers fade to keep plants looking neat and encourage season-long bloom.

Greece Chamber Seeks Youth Nominations Deadline: April 1, 2022 The Greece Regional Chamber of Commerce is seeking Nominations for Outstanding Youths for the 32nd Annual Youth Hall of Fame Awards.

From the office of The Supervisor, Bill Reilich As our winter season comes to an end, I would like to remind you that our Winter Parking Ordinance is in effect through April 15, midnight – 8:00am. Until this time, please do not park on any Town roads or the grass on right-of-ways. This is to make plowing and salting of dedicated Town streets safer and more effective and to cut the cost of snow removal.

March 22, 2022 marks the two-hundred-year anniversary of the Town of Greece. We have been busy throughout the past year as we gear up to celebrate. Last year, we held a contest for all Greece residents and businesses to create a logo to be featured on all official literature, documentation and social media relating to the Town’s plan to celebrate this historic event.

We also created a Bicentennial Historic Resources Survey, which is an online, living archive of maps, images, information and historical narratives documenting Greece’s heritage in an accessible format that is easy to navigate for people of all ages. The survey link can be found here: https://storymaps.arcgis.com/stories/ 7a414722fef745efb0fddfad4af0bdf3 This past month, I was honored to hold a proclamation ceremony recognizing Phil Tomasso. Phil and his wife, Stephanie, purchased Something Delicious Bake Shop in the beginning of 2020. Stephanie was running a bake shop business from their home and they were looking to expand their space. After moving into the space, Stephanie and Phil began receiving casting calls because the previous owner had participated in Food Network competition shows.

Eventually, they received an email from Guy Fieri’s Chance of a Lifetime to participate in a Guy Fieri hosted reality show in chick contestants compete for the chance to open a Chicken Guy Franchise.

Phil won 2nd place in the competition, which resulted in receiving a $40k franchising fee to open a Chicken Guy restaurant. Congratulations, Phil, on your amazing accomplishment! We hope you open a Chicken Guy restaurant here in the Town of Greece!
