Local Farm Gains Environmental Recognition Saranac Community Schools Becomes MAEAP Verified Saranac, Mich.— June 15th, Saranac Community Schools achieved verification in the Michigan Agriculture Environmental Assurance Program (MAEAP). MAEAP is a voluntary program aimed at helping producers protect the environment by implementing conservation practices. “Students need to understand the connections between agriculture and natural resources and how they must care for both to reap any benefits,” said Susann Young, Saranac Jr/Sr High School Science Teacher and FFA Advisor. To participate, Saranac Community Schools worked together with Ionia Conservation District to identify steps to reduce pollution. The school worked at its own pace to implement conservation practices to alleviate those potential environmental risks. Once they made changes, a MAEAP Verifier made sure that the operation was following the guidelines outlined in MAEAP’s systems of rec-
ognition. MAEAP has four systems in which producers can become verified: Farmstead; Cropping; Livestock; and Forest, Wetlands, and Habitat. Saranac Community Schools is recognized for stewardship practices in all four systems, which looks at the following: Farmstead- operational practices on the entire farm focusing on protecting surface and groundwater. Cropping- field-based practices such as water use, soil conservation, and nutrient management. Livestock- animal production practices like manure management and nutrient management. Forest, Wetland, Habitatforest health, soil conservation, and restoring habitat and wetlands. “The supports made the process simple and enlightening,” said Superintendent, Jason Smith. “The updates for our district will have long-term positives.” For more information about MAEAP or the Ionia Conservation District, visit www. MAEAP.org or www.ioniacd. org.

anywhere is a Casiotone keyboard. Stylish and sleek, it features a carrying handle for ease of transport and built-in speakers so you can pump up the jams for friends to enjoy. Whether you’re performing a concerto or using the keyboard’s Dance Music Mode to instantly create and remix EDM tracks in 50 different styles, you can just pop in six AA batteries, and you’re good to go. • Make a bonfire: Get the friends together to tell scary stories, cook dinner over an open fire, make s’mores and have a sing-along. With many portable, smokeless fire pits on the market today, you don’t need to wait until your next camping trip to have a bonfire.
• Play jumbo-sized games: From chess and checkers to tumbling towers, oversized versions of your favorite classic board games are ideally played outside. • Relax with a lazy day: With a hammock alone, you can instantly create the perfect backyard oasis for a leisurely day of reading and napping. Today’s hammocks are more versatile than their predecessors. Beyond those that tie to trees and mount to walls, self-standing models offer easy set-up and portability so you can follow the shade -- or sun -- as desired. This season, take the fun outside. With a little creativity, music, games, meals and more can be enjoyed in your backyard.
