Air Quality Awareness Week reminds us: the air we share affects us all—but some are more vulnerable than others.

Older adults, children, and people with chronic health conditions face greater risks when air quality declines. Staying informed is the first step to staying safe.

On poor air quality days:
• Limit time outdoors
• Reduce strenuous activity
• Use indoor air purifiers when possible

Check current conditions anytime:

Clean air starts with awareness.

Fresh from the garden or found wild, the thin stalks taste like sweet peas.
However, when sautéed, they elevate the flavors of meats, potatoes, and other garden vegetables. Asparagus also shines when baked or grilled. Whether added to a soufflé, wrapped in bacon, or tossed into a salad, this vegetable is a powerhouse in the kitchen.

Now is a great time to plant this perennial. Alternatively, you can find it growing wild! Embark on an adventure to harvest some asparagus and celebrate this versatile vegetable!
