SHOP SUSTAINABLY THIS SPRING We all need to eat, so why not consume in a way that protects the environment, promotes personal health and supports rural communities? Shopping sustainably isn't as hard as you think. By simply changing a few of your purchasing habits, you can help reduce your carbon footprint. And with spring here, there's no better time to get outside and explore your options.

Check out farmers' markets These local markets support a sustainable food system by offering regionally grown foods, creating less waste, and using certified organic practices that reduce the amount of pesticides and chemicals that pollute our soil and water. Sustainable farming also creates a mutually beneficial relationship between farmers and consumers. They provide us with fresh, healthy food like vegetables, cheeses,

meats and herbs, and we in turn contribute to their success by making sure small family farms stay in business and that their land remains protected from development.

Grow your own food Producing your own food doesn't have to be a daunting task.

Because our students are just as invested.

The Seneca Student Federation and Student Athletic Association have made a significant contribution of $17-million-plus to the King Campus expansion.

current students likely won’t have the chance to use these new facilities themselves, making this an extraordinary investment in Seneca’s future.

These funds will be used towards developing a multi-purpose athletic and recreation space, gymnasium, fitness centre, event spaces, and student commons to connect and collaborate.

Tips to create a

BACKYARD OASIS

DID YOU KNOW?

Rubber mulch can eliminate the need for annual mulching, since rubber doesn't break down as wood does; it's heavy enough to stay put; and you can use less of it to control weeds.

t's the time of year we have been anxiously awaiting — the snow has melted and we can finally enjoy outdoor spring temperatures. As the once frozen ground starts to give way to new growth, the barren state of your garden is likely calling for some inspiration. Follow these tips to create the outdoor space you've been dreaming of all winter.

Develop a plan Any great renovation needs a plan. Check out websites, blogs and magazines to find inspiration for the look you want to achieve.

There are many online tools and apps that exist as well. Before you make any purchases, measure your space and create a blueprint design incorporating all the elements in your backyard. From flower gardens to patio space, it's easier to make changes on paper than when you are arm-deep in soil.

Choose materials to make the most of your space Whether you are working with a small urban balcony or a sprawling suburban backyard, you want to choose the right materials to make the most of your space. Recycled product manufacturers Multy Home and New Rubber Technologies create environmentally friendly products for the home and backyard that are made from recycled tires but do not sacrifice on design.

Landscape or balcony tiles, available at your local home improvement store, are easy to install and will make your backyard makeover both quick and sustainable.

Keep your garden blooming A beautiful garden is not complete without the addition of flowers and greenery. Choose plants that thrive in your space, picking some for sunny and shady spots. If the area is tight, consider creating a container garden using recycled rubber planters. Adding recycled rubber mulch on top of the soil will help keep the roots moist. Work with a gardening expert to find a fertilizer to keep your garden growing all season.

Directions: 1. Place mushrooms in a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Pulse until finely chopped.

2. In a large saucepan, brown mushrooms until moisture has been released, approx. 5 to 6 mins.

HEALTHY TIPS FOR SPRINGTIME RUNNING After a long winter of being inactive, you're probably dying to get out in the warm weather and hit the pavement. But pushing yourself too hard can cause injuries. Before you take a spin around the block or try your first marathon, follow these tips from Michelle W. Book, holistic nutritionist, to safely get into the swing of things.

Start small Don't go too fast or too long to start. Warm up by walking for a few minutes, then running for a few minutes, then walking again. Alternating between running and walking will give your body a chance to slowly build up the strength and endurance you lost over the winter. Gradually decrease the amount of time you're walking and increase the amount of time you're running and before you know it, you'll be doing a 5k run effortlessly.

Stay hydrated Snack smart If you're running less than an hour, water If you're just getting back into your running is typically a good choice. Anything more routine, you may start to crave carbs.

Maintaining a healthy home for seniors As we age, our immune systems become less effective at fighting disease, which can increase our risk of developing health complications.

Older people are more likely to develop heart or respiratory illnesses and are more susceptible to the potential health impacts from a variety of exposures in our day-to-day lives.

The following simple steps can help you stay healthy as you age: • During hot summer months, keep your home cool and stay hydrated. It can be dangerous if it gets too hot inside your home, especially if you have existing medical conditions such as heart or kidney problems, breathing difficulties or hypertension. Drink plenty of cool liquids before you start to feel thirsty, and eat more fruits and vegetables. Arrange for visits by family members or friends during very hot days, in case you need assistance.

• Improve air quality in your home by having your home tested for radon, a radioactive gas that is produced naturally by the breakdown of uranium in the ground.

It enters homes through cracks and gaps in floors, walls, windows and doors and is in every home in Canada at varying levels. Indoor exposure to radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer in Canada after smoking.

• Allow fresh air into the house regularly unless it is very hot or smoggy outside, in which case using air conditioning is recommended.

• Remember to always use exhaust fans when cooking and showering to reduce the build-up of moisture and indoor air pollutants.

• Use household chemicals safely – read and follow all instructions, store chemicals properly when not in use, and dispose of household hazardous waste products safely.

• Wash re-useable grocery bags frequently with hot, soapy water, especially if they have been used for raw meat, poultry, fish or seafood.

• Make sure you have a working carbon monoxide detector certified by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). Follow the manufacturer's suggestions for installation, testing, use and replacement. The most important place to install a detector is in the hallways, outside of sleeping areas.

Health Canada has produced a simple, easy-to-read Environmental Health Guide for Seniors at Home that can be ordered by calling 1-800-O-Canada or by visiting www.canada.ca/health.

This guide is a useful resource on how to stay healthy at home.

What's trending in home dĂŠcor this season?

Freshening up your home for spring and summer is simple with a few strategic changes, inspired by top trends from design experts and Pinterest boards. Here are some ideas to make your home magazine cover-ready.

DID YOU KNOW?

The Heartleaf Philodendron houseplants can be trained as vines. Another great plus, Philodendron Plants remove air-born toxins such as formaldehyde from the air.

Contemporary colours Colour is having a major moment, with new hues shaking up classic design. Navy is the new black and works as a great neutral in the kitchen or living room, while jewel tones are perfect for decorative accents. Greenery is Pantone's colour of the year and will make any space instantly fashionable. The fresh and zesty yellow-green hue is symbolic of new beginnings, but any shade is a design win this season.

Floral fabrics Embrace spring and summer with flowery prints. Play with a variety of patterns and sizes and stick to a unifying colour scheme for a look that says modern chic.

Tiles with texture Subway tiles are so 2016, now replaced by rustic materials like wood, terracotta and cork. Keep the look crisp and lines clean by using a matte finish and placing tiles on an accent wall or item, like the fireplace.

Picturesque plants Take a cue from Pinterest and green your interiors with indoor vines — climbing plants have risen in popularity on the platform by over 200 per cent since last year. Pretty Heartleaf Philodendron is easy to grow and ideal for beginners.

Wow-factor windows Create drama, dimension and interest not only at the waindow, but also in the light that cascades into the room with the right window treatments. From solids to textures to stripes to small-scale designs, new Designer Banded Shades from Hunter Douglas offer a fabric to fit your style. Top it off with a sophisticated colour palette featuring fresh neutrals, greys and pops of colour that excite. Intelligent design enables the shade to transition from open to closed seamlessly, providing a modern solution for view-through, light control and privacy. www.newscanada.ca
