Snow Removal Spreading Storm

Haverford Township Public Works Department approaches light storms that are expected to produce 0-2 inches of frozen precipitation as a spreading storm. The Public Works Department and PennDOT refer to these storms as spreading storms because the spreading of materials, (brine & rock salt) is the primary tool used to remove ice and snow.

24HR CW

Haverford Township is responsible for the maintenance of 165.07 miles of Township and state roads throughout Haverford Township. Depending upon the forecast, we will pre-treat the roadway surface with salt brine before the winter storm. Throughout the storm, we will spread materials over the length of these roads until all lanes are free of snow and ice. Depending on the temperature, we may plow to remove remaining snow and slush. An average cycle for a Township truck on these roads is one hour.

Plowing Storm

A storm that is expected to produce more than two inches of precipitation is treated as a plowing event storm. The primary function of the public works crews is plowing the roadways. Do not clear the end of your driveway until the storm has stopped and the road is plowed curb to curb. This will save you work and will lower your frustration level. The Township has a goal to open one lane of traffic in each direction on every road and later return to plow the snow back to the curb, exposing the storm water inlets.

Residents are reminded of Township Ordinance #2629, which clearly states that it is unlawful for any property owner, resident, his/her contractor, agent or employee to

shovel, plow discharge or otherwise place snow into any street, roadway, sidewalk, or alley within the Township of Haverford. This ordinance is strictly enforced!

Tools

The Township crews will pre-treat roadways with rock salt and salt brine before the storm. Next, we will continue to spread winter materials over the entire length of the roadways throughout the storm until all lanes are free of snow and ice.

Anti-icing, known as brine, is applied to a dry road before snow starts falling. This helps to prevent ice and snow from sticking to the

pavement. Utilizing brine allows us to move from a reactive (de-icing) to a pro-active approach (anti-icing). Anti-icing accelerates the melting process and promptly returns roads to their normal state. Township employees will be able to cover a larger territory by beginning treatment before the storm begins. We will use less salt as a deicer, resulting in cost savings, and less of an environmental impact on our community.

Road salt remains the primary tool for treating winter storms in the Township. The Township maintains a stockpile of salt at our maintenance facility.

Parenting Corner How To T.A.L.K. To Your Children About Vaccines

By Dr. LynAnn Mastaj

I have been an orthodontist for over 25 years, and one of the reasons I choose this medical specialty was because I would not have to give my patients a shot. Being fearful of needles is normal, especially in children.

But given the current COVID-19 pandemic, and the race to develop a vaccine to ensure our health and safety, it is important to talk to our children early and often about the need for vaccines-- of all kinds--and prepare them for the COVID immunization. It is critical to trust this vaccine when it is available and follow the science: For generations, vaccines have prevented countless childhood diseases, and even deaths, and have protected the health of both individuals and the public.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, “Data show that the current U.S. vaccine supply is the safest in history.”

Dr. Robert Murphy, an infectious diseases specialist at Northwestern University and Executive Director of the Institute for Global Health, told CNN that since coronavirus is an RNA virus, similar to SARS and MERS, vaccine researchers are not starting from square one.

Protocols for safety and efficacy, which have been used to develop many other vaccines successfully, are being implemented with the highest standards.

The good news is that some COVID-19 vaccine candidates may have a product thoroughly developed and tested by the end of the year. It is important to note that developing a vaccine and creating enough supply around the clock may increase the financial risk, but not the product risk.

Given that, now is the time to start talking to family members and about getting the COVID-19 vaccine whenit is available. This is especially important for our children and teens, who may not be symptomatic but could be carriers.

To facilitate this discussion, I developed the acronym T.A.L.K. to help my patients and their parents talk about and reduce any fears about getting a COVID vaccine.

T Trust the vaccine. Talk to your children

about how the medicine will protect them.

Explain that they will get a poke under the skin and it will prepare their body to fight the virus. Without the vaccine, everyone can get very sick.

A Assure them the medicine is safe. Tell

them that parents and kids have been getting vaccines since they were babiesto stay healthy and protected against diseases.

kisses. Praise your children for being brave. Promise a fun Band-Aid, ice cream or other treat immediately after.

Embrace setbacks. When things don't go the way you planned, accept it as part of the overall journey.

K Kind words and

Hello Parents!

As a generous lather formed in the pot, I realized that I have not been slowing down enough to really pay attention to everything I have to be thankful for. The next day at school I watched the smiling and happy children enter the building. It reminded me how amazing these kids are and what a gift we all have. Let's take a look at a few ideas to help us all to be thankful. This can work for our children as well! Talk to them about it:

Dr. LynAnn Mastaj is an Orthodontic Specialist in private practice in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania. She is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine and received her specialty training at Albert Einstein Medical Center. Dr. Mastaj published “Infection control in the general dental practice with emphasis on orthodontic practice” Compendium, 1994 Jan:15 (1) and is a leader in her field.

L

Journal. Take a few minutes a couple of times a week to write down what you are thankful for. I will often ask my kids, “tell me the good news!” Ask yourself the same question.

Last night I was cleaning up after dinner and listening to some country music. I started to pay attention to the words (as I scrubbed a pot with one of those smiley faced scratchy pads) and the theme I heard was about being thankful for what we have. The songs were about enjoying the moment and cherishing this time we have with our children. I think that scratchy pad started to look at me and it might have tilted it's head as if to say, “think about it”…

Remember, while the COVID pandemic has had a disastrous impact on our lives, we will have a safe, effective vaccine in the foreseeable future that will protect our families and enable us to resume our lives.

Learn ways to calm your children and yourself while getting a vaccine. Hold your kids close if they're younger and have them to look away.

Try singing, humming and blowing bubbles or kisses. Breath, count or laugh to distract them.

Being Thankful an excerpt from Andrew Mullen’s book Middle Schooled.

Play something special with them once you get home.

Spend time with loved ones. Like the line from the country song, “suddenly fishing wasn't such an imposition.” Say “yes.”

Avoid negative social media. Gossiping and putting people down drains your bucket.

It's the small stuff. Do something nice for someone every day. Hold a door, compliment someone, smile. It all adds up.

Volunteer. Pay it forward. Everyone needs help once in a while.

Change one word. We often say things like, “I have to drive my kid to practice” or “I have to go to work today.” Change it to “I get to.” How awesome is it that your kid is healthy and can play a sport and that you have a job? The things you do every day are not burdens but opportunities.

Practice mindfulness. Live in the here and now. Appreciate the moment. I know people speak highly of the ability to multitask but I think that stinks. Immerse yourself in the present. I am horrible at multi-tasking. If I am chewing gum, I sit there until it loses flavor, spit it out and resume my activity. I am not kidding.

Take a break. Take a moment to go for a walk, look at the clouds and think. Slow down!

Say “Thank you.” When you are thankful for someone, tell them.

At dinner, ask everyone to say one thing they are thankful for. If they make a joke of it, don't feed them.

The county music finally switched themes and next week I am probably going to skip school (this is just between us, right?) to go fishing with my dog while driving a new pickup truck that I now plan to purchase!

The message next week may be about poor decision making, but we shall see.

Have a happy Thanksgiving! ~ Andy

Health & Wellness Cancer Care Should Be Tough On Tumors, Not On Patients

At Main Line Health, lung cancer is one of many cancers treated minimally invasively. Another is endometrial cancer, the most common gynecologic cancer.

Main Line Health gynecologic oncologist Lauren Turker, MD, notes that research strongly supports a less invasive approach to hysterectomy for early-stage endometrial cancer.

As she explains, “Compared with traditional surgery, minimally invasive surgery is associated with similar long-term survival but a lower risk for serious complications and a quicker recovery.”

Innovating for the Good of Patients

Living with a cancer diagnosis is hard enough. At Main Line Health, we believe cancer care should be as easy as possible on patients while also safe and effective. This belief drives us to continually seek better ways to diagnose, treat and prevent cancer with less impact on patients.

Decades of Experience At Main Line Health, minimally invasive techniques are fundamental skills of the surgeons and medical specialists who participate in cancer care. As tests and treatments for cancer evolve and new approaches prove better than older ones, we are quick to adopt these new methods into practice.

Prime examples are techniques our surgeons and medical specialists use to safely and effectively remove cancer from the body without making a large incision - or in some cases, any incision at all.

“Our decades of experience with minimally invasive cancer surgery make us confident in pushing the boundaries of newer, less invasive treatments to achieve better cancer control and quality of life for our patients,” says Patrick Ross, MD, PhD, thoracic (chest) surgeon and Chair of 14

Haverford News

the Department of Surgery at Main Line Health.

Our cancer specialists champion minimally invasive cancer treatment whenever appropriate, having repeatedly seen the positives it offers patients. The patient benefits also are rewarding.

“It is highly gratifying to see our patients get back to the things they enjoy, such as golfing, working out and creating gourmet meals,” explains Dr. Ross. “These are just a few examples of favorite activities our patients quickly returned to after successful minimally invasive surgical treatment of lung cancer.”

Kareem Ibrahim, MD, another thoracic surgeon at Main Line Health, is enthusiastic about being able to offer more patients less invasive surgery for lung cancer.

“Fortunately, with our lung cancer screening program and our timeliness in following up on incidental lung nodules, we are finding more lung cancers at an early stage,” says Dr. Ibrahim. “This is great news for patients, as minimally invasive surgical techniques allow us to offer them definitive treatment with equivalent or better survival and less morbidity.”

Our surgeons and specialists are committed to building on our skills and experience with minimally invasive techniques, seeking ways to find more cancers early and remove or destroy more cancers with less impact. As technology advances, we continually ask ourselves: how can we do even better for our patients?

To schedule an appointment with a cancer specialist at Main Line Health, call 866.CALL.MLH (866.225.5654).

You can also visit mainlinehealth.org to fill in our secure online appointment request form.

The Benefits of Minimally Invasive Cancer Treatment Compared with traditional methods of cancer surgery, minimally invasive surgery offers: Equal effectiveness in removing or destroying cancer, with less trauma to healthy tissue More accurate cancer staging to determine the need for further treatment Less bleeding, postoperative pain and risk for surgical infection Faster recovery and quicker return to normal routines Surgery with smaller or no incisions, for minimal or no scars

Helpful Insurance Tips by State Farm Agent Michael Coughlan Helpful car insurance tips for college students When your child goes away to a college and leaves their car behind, there are options to lower your insurance premiums while they’re away.

You have plenty of big things to worry about with your child heading off to college—room and board, textbook purchases and the frequency of late-night pizza orders — so you

probably haven't done much thinking about the effect on your auto insurance. But learning how your auto insurance works when your child attends a university or college away from home is an important item to consider.

How does car insurance work when your child goes away to school?

In most cases, you need to notify your auto insurance company about your child leaving for school, even if you are leaving your car at home. Why?

Your child’s car could still be covered when they come home for weekends and breaks.

College, university and trade school students are typically covered under their parents' car insurance, as long as they live at the same address as their parents when not at school.

Review your specific policy to see if your child is covered.

You might qualify for a different (and cheaper) auto insurance rate.

Rates may change if your child is driving the car at school rather than leaving it back at home. For example, drivers in urban locations generally pay more for insurance than those in rural areas. If your child is going to school in a urban location, you might have to pay a higher premium if they take the car with them.

You might receive a discount for their grades.

Students with solid grades may qualify for a good student discount. If your child is in college, or heading off to school soon, get in touch with your insurance agent today.

Senior Lifestyles Keep Your Brain Fit Did you know that you can take steps to improve your cognitive health? In the past, health professionals have encouraged a healthy diet with plenty of exercise as a way to maintain physical health. Research now shows there are specific actions we can take to protect our cognitive health. As one study states, the combination of mental processes we need to live our lives well “includes the ability to learn new things, intuition, judgment, language, and remembering.

Having a clear, active mind at any age is important, but as we get older it can mean the difference between dependent and independent living.”

The good news is that there are many ways to maintain brain health and to minimize the natural effects of aging. And there is evidence that what is good for the heart is good for the brain - such as regular exercise, socialization, and a healthy diet. A recent study published in the journal Neurology states that exercise seems to protect against brain shrinkage, since exercise increases the oxygen level of the blood, and that may keep brain tissues healthier.

Haverford News

Staying mentally active and stimulated helps keep your brain in shape. To prevent memory loss, Mayo Clinic recommends doing crossword puzzles, reading a section of the newspaper you normally skip, taking alternate routes when driving, volunteering, or learning to play a musical instrument.

Surrey Services for Seniors offers a myriad of virtual programs to help you keep your brain fit and healthy while remaining safe at home during this challenging time. Exercise programs are offered live via Zoom or ondemand via Surrey's YouTube channel.

Surrey offers virtual programs such as its award-winning Classical Music program, the Next Act drama group and Memoir Writing program.

Whatever the activity you chose, make it a habit to do at least one thing daily to keep your brain fit. It will pay off in the long run.

Pets & Safety Tips Cat Behavior Problems: Advice from a Behavior Expert

By Dr. Hagar Hauser, DVM| Behavior

Cats display a wide range of emotions which sometimes can be hard for humans to fully understand. This is particularly true when cats display aggressive or anxious behavior which when left unaddressed can cause problems in the home. It's important to be proactive about cat behavioral issues and to understand some basic elements about cat psychology before getting one as your pet.

Today we're asking Hagar Hauser, DVM Behavior Service at Metropolitan Veterinary Associates some important questions about cat behavior to understand our pets better.

eliminate a normal amount, known as inappropriate toileting. Other cats spray a small amount of urine, typically on vertical surfaces, known as urine marking or spraying. Unfortunately, inappropriate elimination is a common reason for cats to be relinquished to shelters. There are ways to manage inappropriate elimination through changing the environment, modifying behavior, and in some cases using pheromones and/or medications. The second most common behavior problem that cats present for is aggression towards another cat in the home or towards their owner. The aggression may be redirected from another stressor in their life, such as an outdoor cat.

What's the best way to handle an aggressive cat?

The most common cause of aggression in cats is fear or anxiety. When interacting with a cat, make sure to read their body language.

If they are showing signs of stress, go slow and at the cat's pace. Let them initiate the interaction on their own, if safe to do so, and offer them high value treats to make a positive association. If your cat is showing aggression towards you or anyone in your home, avoid handling them and consult with your veterinarian immediately.

What are some fundamentals of pet psychology to know before getting a cat?

Hagar Hauser: Before getting a cat, it's important to know about its natural behaviors so you can provide opportunities for your cat to perform them in your home and help meet their needs. Natural cat predatory behavior is commonly seen in our pet cats. Their play repertoire includes stalking, pouncing, and grabbing a toy just like they would hunt in the wild. Cats also naturally eat multiple small meals throughout the day and may catch up to 20 mice per day! To help promote these natural behaviors, we can provide individual play time, offer them food puzzles, and hide treats for them throughout the home. It's also important to know that cats utilize space in order to maintain harmony. If they are not comfortable with a person or another pet in the home, they should have the ability to maintain distance from them, especially on elevated surfaces. Finally, cats are thought to be low maintenance pets, however, they do require mental and physical enrichment in the home. Be prepared to offer them daily play time, toys, and one-on-one interaction.

What happens when two cats don't like each other in the same household?

What are some important cat body language cues to know?

While cats are predators, they are also a prey species so they hide when they are not feeling well or are fearful. Signs of a stressed cat include tail swishing, ears flat or back, dilated pupils, hackles (hair on back) raised, and vocalizations (hissing, growling). When in doubt, always wait for a cat to approach you before interacting with them. Cats rub their face against peoples' legs, also known as bunting, to release a pheromone from their cheek gland. They may be soliciting petting if they nudge your hand or lean against you. A cat that is hiding should be left alone as they are using distance in order to feel secure.

It is not uncommon for cats to present to a veterinary behaviorist for aggression towards their housemates. As discussed earlier, cats use space to maintain harmony and if there are too many cats in a small space, they are not able to do so. This may present as one cat blocking another cat's access to resources (litter box, food, owner) by physically standing in the way or using subtle body language to deter them, rough play, or overt aggression that includes hissing, swatting, scratching, and biting. Every cat should have a core area where they have access to their own food, water, toys, bedding, and litter box. If the cats are actively aggressive towards each other, they must be separated by physical barriers and the owner should consult with their

What are the most common behavior issues?

The most common behavior problem that cats present to the veterinarian for is inappropriate elimination (urinating or defecating outside of the litter box). Some cats squat outside of the litter box and 20

veterinarian. While some cats may be reintroduced with gradual training (using desensitization and counterconditioning), others may never safely be reintroduced.

How does cat behavior change over time?

Kittens are often energetic and rambunctious pets. As they get older, they may be described as “low energy� while others are active throughout their adult life. If a cat has any anxiety or fears, they may intensify as they go through social maturity at three to four years of age.

Therefore, if you notice your cat has any behavior concerns at a younger age, it's important to address them as soon as possible. Other triggers that may result in behavior changes in your cat include environmental changes or illness. For example, if you move homes, bring home a new baby, add another pet, or another significant change occurs in your cat's environment, then their baseline anxiety level can increase. Similarly, if your cat has gastrointestinal upset, pain, neurologic changes, endocrine disease, or other medical illnesses, then they may become more irritable. If you notice a change in your cat's behavior, please consult with your veterinarian.

When is it necessary to see a specialist about cat behavior?

When a cat is exhibiting aggression, it is important to discuss safety guidelines with your veterinarian who may recommend referral to a specialist. Other reasons to see a specialist may include inappropriate elimination, inappropriate play behavior, separation anxiety, pica, feline hyperesthesia syndrome, or other behavior concerns. An appointment with a behavior specialist will include filling out a questionnaire that collects information about your cat's behaviors, an appointment with an in-depth discussion regarding the behavior, and a thorough treatment plan. As a general rule, it is strongly recommended to address behavior problems sooner rather than later as cats typically do not grow out of them.

Rather the problems may even worsen.

Sports & Recreation Don't give up on your swing just because summer's over. Golf is still the perfect socially-distanced game in the fall, and the Golf Tour of Greater Philadelphia (GTGP)* welcomes new players to two casual games during their membership drive this October and November.

Why do people enjoy playing with Golf Tour Philly? Tony McCarthy, a strong amateur golfer who also manages the website www.golftourphilly.org offered three reasons: 1) Camaraderie It's a great group, and everyone loves the game. There's also a sense of friendly competition which helps us all focus and improve. And after the round is over, many of us enjoy gathering and sharing stories at “the 19th hole” (the clubhouse) over a select beverage or two.

2) Health and Safety The pandemic has us all searching for non-contact outdoor exercise alternatives, and golf allows you to pick your level of effort. Most people preferred to ride around in carts, but we've had a lot more walkers in 2020 because of Covid-19!

Joining a league can be a bit intimidating for decent players who might not know their handicap, but GTGP has you covered! Every member gets their scores posted for them on the US Golf Association (USGA) Tournament Management system, and after your third game, it automatically generates your handicap. We not only track your scores online for you, we kicked off a “Park and Play” registration and payment system in January which was very helpful when the pandemic hit. Members can now skip the pro shop and head straight to the practice area and the first tee. Park your car and go play!

It's all in good fun, and Golf Tour Philly also believes in giving back, so funds are always set aside for an admirable charity: SuperKids of Montgomery County, a non-profit which supports abused, neglected, and abandoned children.

October 31st and November 7th, new players were able to meet members and play some casual golf. A Golf Tour Philly representative was there to welcome them and introduce their partners for the day. And of course, visited with them at the 19th hole.

Further information is available on the website www.golftourphilly.org, by emailing Golf Tour Philly guarantees your reserved tee TonyMcCarthy@golftourphilly.org or calling times, most during prime Saturday morning 484.753.4914. See you on the links! slots, and offers various levels of competition: Weekly 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners (“low nets” get credits towards future rounds) A season-long points race, and...

A 2-round championship in September

3) Great Courses - We play 20 to 25 of the best public courses within about an hour of Philly. Members appreciate visiting different venues from our two favorite “oak” courses - Pilgrim's Oak in Lancaster County and Golden Oaks in Berks County, to many high-quality courses along the Jersey Shore. We also play private clubs, like Bluestone in Blue Bell and the 1912 Club in Plymouth Meeting. The process of picking courses for next year is currently underway, so both new players and new clubs are welcome to reach out to us!

*The Golf Tour of Greater Philadelphia (GTGP) is a locally-operated golf league for amateur golfers of all abilities. Our classification as a non-profit keeps costs down, and our club organization ensures all members have input in club operations. The result is competitive golf in a collegial atmosphere at a great price!

GTGP is also an associate club of the Golf Association of Philadelphia. Members are eligible to play in GAP Member Play Days at private clubs in the area.

Gardening & Landscaping Enhancing Your Fall Garden

Autumn is a great season for admiring and bolstering the life in your garden. The shortening daylight hours signal leaves to begin their transition from lush, summer green to cooler hues of reds, oranges, and yellows. Dropping temperatures encourage the flora and fauna to slow down in preparation of winter dormancy and hibernation. A gardener's work, however, is never complete. This is an optimal time for cherishing the newly painted landscape and continuing garden improvement projects.

through Jenkins, you may notice a dense layer of oak leaf litter in all of the garden beds and natural areas.

Being in an oak dominated forest, this method of naturalistic gardening is just one way we manage the resources we have while continuing to provide for the local flora and fauna.

Autumn is also a great time to expand your gardens and extend the bloom time. Cool air temperatures, moderate moisture levels, and adequate heat

Outside of the aster family, species such as Southern blue monkshood (Aconitum uncinatum), bottle gentian (Gentiana andrewsii), Cardinal flower (Lobelia cardinalis), and Great blue lobelia (Lobelia siphilitica) add a variety of flower types, textures, and colors that will brighten your garden as the temperatures begin to drop. After the plants are in the ground, remember to thoroughly water and mulch them to provide ample opportunity for successful growth.

Seed Collecting Fall Color

As September rolls in, we notice the subtleties in the changing color palette of the trees. Our home gardens also start to cycle through and slow down, giving us an opportunity to admire the season's hard work. The timing of this leaf color change is determined by the reduced hours of sunlight. The brilliance of the color change is then influenced by climatic factors, such as moisture and temperature.

Wetter conditions and cooler nighttime temperatures allow for a longer period of color change, while sunnier days make for a brighter color.

In Southeastern Pennsylvania, peak fall color is typically enjoyed in mid to late October.

Certain deciduous trees are known to have a brighter display of fall color, including red maple (Acer rubrum), sugar maple (Acer saccharum), and blackgum (Nyssa sylvatica). Additionally, there are a few deciduous conifers that join in the show and drop their needles in the fall. This includes bald cypress (Taxodium distichum) and American larch (Larix laricina), both of which turn a beautiful, golden yellow. Some plants have a rather unique lifecycle in which they are blooming as the leaves are changing color. This anomaly can be seen in the Franklin tree (Franklinia alatamaha) and some deciduous azaleas including Rhododendron x 'Weston's Innocence'.

Jenkins Arboretum & Gardens is home to an accredited collection of rhododendron and azaleas.

These plants are most often thought of as providing striking colors when blooming in the spring, but many also have notable features in the fall. Some species, such as the Encore azaleas, even have a second bloom time as many other plants are beginning to drop their leaves.

Once the leaves have fallen, they can still be of use.

Chopping them up with a lawn mower and raking them into garden beds provides habitat for beneficial insects and organic matter for the soil. As they are broken down by bugs, the leaves return nitrogen and phosphorous to the soil, acting as a slow release fertilizer that helps improve soil health. Walking

retention in the soil provide an ideal window for planting herbaceous and woody plants. These conditions reduce the potential for drought stress and insect predation on the plants and are far more comfortable to garden in than the midsummer's heat.

When deciding which species to add to your home landscape, it is important to be honest about the light, moisture, and space that you can provide.

These factors will influence the continual maintenance required as your garden grows. At Jenkins, we focus on supporting plants native to the eastern United States. These species have an evolutionary history that lends them to being adapted to their surrounding conditions, so they require minimal maintenance once established.

Native plants also support the local wildlife by providing food and shelter for birds and insects.

If your goal is to add more late summer and early fall blooming plants to your garden, you may want to consider planting those in the aster family. While they vary in size and color, most plants in this family have a composite flower head that is made up of dozens of smaller flowers. This creates a dense display of color that will last through September and sometimes even October. Species such as blue wood aster (Symphyotrichum cordifolium), smooth aster (Symphyotrichum laeve), and aromatic aster (Symphyotrichum oblongifolium) are examples of individuals that will grow in a variety of conditions and bloom through early fall.

Planting goldenrods is another way to extend the seasonality of a garden by adding tall bursts of orange and yellow. They are also in the aster family, and species such as autumn goldenrod (Solidago sphacelata 'Golden Fleece'), zigzag goldenrod (Solidago flexicaulis), and flat-top goldenrod (Euthamia graminifolia) grow in a contained fashion and provide nutritional nectar sources for bees through September.

Once pollinated, plants that bloomed in the spring and early summer will transition to the next phase in their lifecycle and begin to set seed. Leaving these herbaceous stalks standing in your garden can provide additional visual interest and food sources for native birds. Some species with particularly showy seed structures include the native strawberry bush (Euonymus americanus), Eastern wahoo (Euonymus atropurpureus), and red buckeye (Aesculus pavia).

Furthermore, collecting seed from your garden and sowing it through the winter is a cost-effective way to grow your plant collections and prepare for (photo by Harold Sweetman) Strawberry bush planting in the spring. This Euonymus americanus seed can be done in a variety of ways, the simplest being to use an old milk jug as a small make-shift greenhouse.

Even though the days are growing shorter and the temperatures are cooling, there are many different aspects of your gardens to enjoy throughout the year. Each season is an opportunity to enjoy a variety of plants while preparing your gardens for the next phase of their lifecycle. We encourage you to explore the life in your own garden and tune into the everchanging natural world.

Jenkins Arboretum & Gardens is a 48-acre public garden showcasing native flora of the eastern U.S. and a world class collection of rhododendron and azaleas. The gardens are free of admission and open every day of the year at 631 Berwyn Baptist Road in Devon.

Heather Titanich is a Hamilton Educational Fellow at Jenkins Arboretum & Gardens. She is participating in a 2-year educational program that is focused on learning and working towards becoming a professional in horticulture.

Art & Creativity COVID and Creativity: STRANGE BEDFELLOWS

By Laurie Lamont Murray of DVAL What do you get when you lock 210 talented artists in their studios for months of quarantine? Some pretty amazing artwork, we're guessing! And then, if you ask a juror to select the 40 best paintings they've done, that's a show you'll want to see!

The artists we're talking about belong to the Delaware Valley Art League, a wonderful organization which ordinarily meets once a month to socialize, plan our upcoming events and participate in workshops by renowned artists.

Members also learn from each other by exchanging information and ideas to develop new techniques and hone their marketing skills.

The Delaware Valley Art League is proud to support the greater Philadelphia region with scholarships for promising students. We also partner with programs which feed the hungry, help pay bills for people in need, etc. by donating a portion of our sales to designated organizations.

DVAL artists show their work at several venues throughout the year, ranging from galleries to hospitals to restaurants, art centers and plein air locations.

Participating artists must pass an Internal Review to ensure that their work meets

DVAL's high standards of professionalism. Then, for each show they enter, their work is juried by a noted, independent professional.

Because most venues are closed or access is very limited, this year we're trying something new: An online show… just in time for the holidays!

You can expect to see our very best in oil, acrylic and watercolor paintings, pastels, pencil and collage. There will be land and seascapes, still life, figurative and abstract work, snowy scenes to celebrate Winter and florals to chase it away.

Art shows in a gallery setting are undeniably fun. But there are also advantages to being able to study a painting at your leisure, come back to it, view the image in whatever setting you might choose. And our usual accommodations will apply to this online show: DVAL artists can arrange a studio visit, delivery, gift wrap, shipping. So pour yourself a beverage of choice, and enjoy an hors d'oeuvre or two while you visit our Holiday Show, scheduled for early December.

You might want to join our mailing list to be notified before the Holiday Show goes live. If so, contact us at info@DVAL.com. And visit our website to see our member gallery and other news. Meanwhile, here are artworks by two very different, very talented members: Ginny Conover, "Here and There"

Don Leong is a well-known watercolorist and a longstanding Board member of DVAL. His beautiful, soft paintings often feature landscapes or street scenes, painted either locally or during his travels. In "Showers Forecasted" we see his masterful use of light and shadow, combined with textural variations to convey Mother Nature's ever-changing moods.

As an interesting contrast, look at Ginny Conover's mixed media piece entitled "Here and There".

Her color palette is not unlike the one chosen by Don Leong, and arguably the two could hang in the same room! Ginny's abstracts are recognized for her adventurous use of line with a wide range of materials, resulting in art that is always full of surprises and interest.
