Help ensure our community has access to fresh, healthy food! The Madison County Local Food Council is collecting and distributing produce to those who need it at various locations over the summer. If your garden and/or chicken coop are providing an overabundance of produce and eggs, consider donating the extras.

Want to add a low maintenance edible to your landscape? The native red mulberry tree can survive most conditions, and rewards the grower with abundant fruits. The berries are also appreciated by wildlife in early summer. Important note: be sure to plant red mulberry (Morus rubra) instead of white mulberry (Morus alba), which is invasive.

The next time you're in Midway, check out the lovely flowers that were planted by the Kountry Kritters 4-H Club at the Range Township Firehouse! The kids did a wonderful job of planting annuals, spreading mulch, and adding pea gravel to the pathway.
