fter a few months of fun in the sun, it can be difficult to admit that summer will soon be over. Lazy, hazy days likely filled the calendar, with time spent poolside or at a beach.

Helpful Back-To-School Tips For Students And Parents
A
fter a summer of relaxation, the start of a new school year generates mixed emotions among students. Many children look forward to being back on campus with their friends but may not revel in the idea of waking up early or doing homework each night. While summer break is a much needed-respite from the rigors of school, it doesn’t mean school should be forgotten entirely.

Keep reading According to Scholastic, summer slide is a concept that was first acknowledged by researchers in 1996. Many comprehensive studies have come out since then and indicated that kids lose significant knowledge in reading and math over summer break, which can have a cumulative effect and lead to skill loss each year.

Children should be encouraged to read as much as possible during summer break, particularly since many schools require summer reading and subsequent
essays or book reports upon returning to the classroom. Let kids read what they want, whether it’s comics, magazines, the newspaper, or even books they’ve read before.

Parents can gradually implement earlier bedtimes as summer winds down so that kids are getting the rest they will need.

What Consumers Can Do To Support Local Farmers
A
strong agricultural sector is vital to a healthy economy. Turbulence has affected local and national economies in recent years, and the global economy has endured its own ups and downs during that span. Though there’s no one-size-fits-all solution to economic struggles, consumers can make a difference by supporting local agricultural producers. Job creation and economic output are two major reasons to support local farmers, and consumers can do that in various ways.
Read product labels to determine where foods are coming from. Non-seasonal foods are likely imported from far away, which has a detrimental impact on the environment and local economies. • Buy directly from local farms. Most consumers purchase their food from grocery stores near their homes, but it might be possible to purchase directly from local farmers. Farmers may utilize e-commerce tools to sell directly to residents and might even offer delivery services that are more convenient than driving to the nearest chain grocery store.
• Shop local. The shop-local movement can make a notable impact on local economies, and it affects more businesses than • Act as an advocate for brick-and-mortar stores local producers. Consumers on Main Street. Locally have considerable power, owned restaurants and and that power can be grocers often source their exercised in numerous food from local farmers, so ways.

ADDITIONAL WAYS TO SUPPORT: Shop & Dine Local: Ask your grocery store managers to stock local products and support independent farm-to-table restaurants in the Long Island area.

Every Journey Begins With A Single Step
E
Now, as life begins to slow down in the best possible way, it feels like the perfect time to begin writing again.
That's why I've called this column Kerry's Compass.
If you know me, you probably know there's no better place to start than
By Kerry Mastrobuoni very Journey begins with a single step, but it isn't always the destination that shapes us, It's the direction we choose each day.
A Compass doesn't tell us how fast to travel or what challenges lie ahead, It simply points us toward true north. It's been many years since I last put my thoughts on paper. Somewhere between marriage, raising children, work, friendships, family gatherings and keeping up with the beautiful chaos of everyday life, writing quietly found its place on the back burner. Not forgotten, just patiently waiting.
So welcome to Kerry's Compass.
The End - Montauk. There’s a certain magic that begins the moment you cross into town. The air feels different. It’s as if the Atlantic has a way of reminding you to breathe a little deeper. Montauk has changed over the years. It’s no secret that influencers, luxury hotels, and social media have transformed this once-quiet fishing village into one of the East Coast’s trendiest
destinations. Prices have climbed right alongside its popularity, and yes, a weekend in peak summer can leave your wallet noticeably lighter. But here’s the secret seasoned Montauk lovers already know: you can still experience its charm without spending a fortune. Visit midweek, come after Labor Day when the crowds thin, or sneak away during the shoulder season. The beaches are just as breathtaking, the sunsets just as spectacular, and you'll often discover the Montauk that locals have loved for generations. Some of my favorite memories have been made over long dinners at Duryea’s, where the waterfront views somehow make time stand still. Cocktails at The Crow’s Nest have become a tradition, with its effortless coastal charm and twinkling lights that make every evening feel like summer should never end. And then there’s The Montauket, perched high above the water, where locals and visitors gather together to watch one of the most spectacular sunsets on Long Island. It truly never gets old. Beyond the well-known favorites lies the history that gives Montauk its soul. The iconic Montauk Point Lighthouse that has stood watch since 1796, guiding

ships through changing tides for generations. Wander the quiet trails of Camp Hero, explore hidden beaches tucked away from the crowds, or simply take a scenic drive to discover the corners that don't always make it onto Instagram. Those are often the places that stay with you the longest. That’s what I hope Kerry’s Compass becomes—a place to share destinations worth exploring, hidden gems waiting to be discovered, and stories that remind us why we travel in the first place. Sometimes the greatest journeys aren’t measured in miles but in the memories they leave behind. And for me, this journey begins exactly where it should. At The End! I’d love to hear from you! Share your travel tips, ideas and inspiration at Kerryscompass@ longislandmediagroup. com. Until next time, always let your compass lead you somewhere worth remembering.

Tips To Tend A Garden In Late Summer
A
s summer winds down, long stretches of sunlight are dwindling and cooler temperatures are on the horizon. Gardening enthusiasts may wonder how they can manage their backyard gardens as the peak growing season comes to a close. People may not be eager to do much in their gardens come August, particularly because the air may be hot and the dew point high. And spending the final days of summer at the beach or in the pool may take priority. However, late summer is a great time to focus on certain tasks. Deadheading Many plants look better with the wilted flowers removed. Furthermore, some plants, such as with lilies and roses, will benefit from having spent blooms removed so that no unnecessary energy is drawn away from the www.longislandmediagroup.com
roots or bulbs. Research your plants and learn which can benefit from some late-summer deadheading to keep them thriving. Weeding Weeds can become problematic if they’re allowed to grow unabated. Routinely go into the garden and cull the weeds. Keep an eye open for pests According to Garden Smart, caterpillars and beetles may be chewing on garden plants by late summer, and aphids still may be problematic. Handpick insects off of vegetables and ornamental flowers, or use safe sprays for treating these issues. Plant cool weather vegetables Many plants will grow well when planted in late summer, according to Homesteading Family. Some such plants include turnips, beets, carrots, kale, chard, mustard greens,
and peas. You can begin turning your summer garden, or a portion of it, into a fall and winter garden. Consider succession planting Growing vegetables like beans or peas may be more successful if you try succession planting. This involves sowing new seeds every seven to 10 days to extend the harvest. Harvesting what’s ready Pick vegetables that are ready to eat, and remove any plants that have reached the end of their growing cycle. Convert planter boxes and containers This is a good time to start changing over summer annuals in containers and planter boxes to those that do well in fall, such as mums, asters, pansies, and goldenrod. There’s plenty of work to be done in the garden come the end of summer.

Gardening and strong mental health seemingly go hand in hand. A study published in the journal Clinical Medicine found that exposure to plants and green spaces— particularly through gardening—is beneficial to both physical and mental health. Penn State Extension says working with soil and plants can help relax the mind and have a grounding effect, reducing stress, anxiety and even built-up anger. Gardening also helps people stay connected to the present moment rather than becoming caught up in their thoughts. Like nearly all forms of exercise, gardening can boost mood and lower stress and anxiety levels. In addition, establishing routines, such as spending part of each day weeding or tending to plants, creates a soothing rhythm that can help ease stress.
