HEALTHY EATING FOR ONE
Thank you to those who came out on Wednesday for the Healthy Eating for One Presentation.
2 lovely ladies offered education on the subject based on their expertise as dietitians. Some general Health information will be available to take home on the lobby table this Sunday. We thank the Peel Public Health for the presentation and for the help receiving a government grant last spring. The Grant is responsible for the new garden fence and a few new things to come.
