Happy Friday! If you're in the Oak Park area tomorrow morning, stop by the farmers market and say hello to my team.

As we look ahead to the beginning of a new school term, I want to express thanks to Lillie Martin for her time with us as our summer intern. She was a great addition to our team!

I am still reflecting on my recent visit to the Obama Presidential Library. It was such a privilege to see the exhibitions & watch history unfold from floor to floor. I hope you have a chance to visit & take in the magnitude of progress made. As a fellow public servant, the experience was inspiring.

I am always reminding people that milkweed is not an undesirable weed, but an important part of green infrastructure - and the best home for monarchs. 🦋

🌿 I planted these a couple of years ago; they have multiplied & become stronger at the root.🐛

Recognizing this week is Mental Health Awareness Week and connecting with nature can help improve our salud mental. It's more important than ever to bring ourselves outdoors...or as the kids say, "to touch grass." How will you unplug today?
