TO THE OCCASION - Islip High School held its second annual #IslipRising event on Aug. 22, a new tradition that started last year when an idea by Superintendent Dr. Dennis O’Hara first came to life.

(StatePoint) Gardening is not only a means for beautifying outdoor spaces and growing delicious foods. According to those who spend significant time in the yard, getting outside can also support your wellbeing.

“Gardening is good for the mind, it’s good for the soul and it’s good for the body,” said legendary football coach, Vince Dooley. “I enjoy coming out to garden, and when I finish, I feel like I’ve done something, and I feel good.”

Landscape architect Doug Scott of Redeem Your Ground recently visited Dooley in Athens, Ga. to discuss gardening and mental health. Here are some of the insights they shared:

Health Benefits

• Active benefits: Gardening exercises the body and clears the mind.

Home & Garden Issue

Designing Your Garden For Better Mental Health

Studies show that increased outdoor exposure leads to fewer long-term health problems, helping improve cardiovascular fitness, flexibility, strength, and dexterity—all leading to better mental health.

Simply planting, growing, harvesting and maintaining plants gives you a direct emotional boost. Why?

Gardening helps foster nurturing instincts and restores a sense of hope and purpose, ultimately improving self-esteem.

• Passive benefits: Don’t have a green thumb? Don’t worry. Scientific evidence proves that just being in nature has positive impacts on stress levels and brain chemistry. It can also lower blood pressure, increase concentration and improve mood. What’s more, being outdoors offers a deeper sense of belonging and a

new sense of purpose outside the daily grind.

Designing Your Garden

Scott advises designing your garden to reflect how you want to live outside. He typically builds “rooms” connected by meandering paths for resting, unwinding, and feeling restored. However, your outdoor spaces don’t always need to be quiet. They can encourage activity as well. If you enjoy company, create gathering spaces. Or, if you have hobbies that can be done

outdoors like exercising, painting or writing, you can set aside areas for them.

Finally, Scott recommends designing your garden to awaken your five senses. Here’s how:

1. Sight: Choose calming colors, or those that bring you joy. The simple sight of a breathtaking array of plants or an arrangement of favorite flowers is bound to give your mental health a boost.

2. Taste: Growing your own food will provide you with an incredibly rewarding harvest. Not only will you be able to enhance meals with the fruits of your labor, you’ll get the personal satisfaction of a job well done.

3. Hearing: Among the plants and flowers, add fixtures, such as wind chimes and water features, that’ll produce soothing sounds. And with the new habitat you’ve created, you’ll enjoy bird song, too!

4. Touch: From the light, feathery textures of petals to the rough surfaces of bark or bush stems, touch offers a deeper sense of connection to nature.

5. Smell: You may already use aromatherapy indoors. Take this concept outside by growing fragrant flowers and herbs, so you can literally

On The 80th Anniversary Of The Sherman Tank, The Museum Of American Armor Seeks Those Who Crewed These Legendary Vehicles

On the 80th anniversary of the iconic Sherman tank that spearheaded America’s liberation of Europe during World War II, the Museum of American Armor is seeking to honor those veterans who crewed these legendary vehicles.

The Armor Museum has put out an “All Points Bulletin” for Sherman tank veterans to join the Armor Museum in observing the milestone anniversary this coming Veterans Day by participating in an oral histories project that memorializes their experiences.

In recognition of its considerable importance, the Armor Museum’s acquisition of a Sherman tank was one of the first actions undertaken by Mr. Kadish when he undertook the creation of the museum.

“You can’t effectively tell the story of American courage during World War II without this particular tank on operational display,” observed Mr. Kadish.

Armor Museum’s founder and president Lawrence Kadish stated, “The Armor Museum continues to offer a powerful presentation that keeps alive the legacy of our nation’s military and the gift of freedom they have given all of us. The Sherman tank is an important part

Some 50,000 Sherman tanks were built by nearly a dozen different manufacturers during World War II, making them available to the Allies as well as American forces fighting in Europe and the Pacific. While not as well armed as its German opponents, the Sherman proved to be reliable, relatively fast, and

Michael Sapraicone, Senior Armor Museum Trustee said, “This museum is a unique commitment by public and private sectors to preserve and present a seminal chapter in the history of our world that is still defining current events around the globe. But to put that in perspective, we need to hear from our veterans who crewed the Sherman so there is a first-hand perspective on our nation’s heritage.”

Sherman veterans are invited to reach out to the museum through its web site,www. museumofamericanarmor. com or call 516 454-TANK (8265).

Home improvement projects run the gamut from minor repairs to complete overhauls. Replacing exterior siding is one of the most significant home improvement projects homeowners can undertake. Such a project can give homes a completely new look, which is why the choice of siding is important.

Homeowners have many siding options, and the following guide can help them make the best choice for their homes.

Vinyl Siding

Vinyl siding is easily maintained and among the more budget-friendly siding options. According to the home improvement resource HomeAdvisor, vinyl siding is made from PVC plastic that does not rot or flake. Siding professionals

Home & Garden Issue

Options Abound When Shopping For Home Siding

note that the technology used to create vinyl siding has changed considerably in recent years, making this option more diverse than traditional vinyl siding. So homeowners turned off by the potentially plastic look of vinyl siding might be surprised at how different modern vinyl siding looks compared to the vinyl siding of yesteryear.

Fiber-Cement Siding

The home improvement television network HGTV notes that fibercement siding has grown in popularity among homeowners in recent years. This material does not require much maintenance and it’s nonflammable and resistant to termites. HomeAdvisor notes that fiber-cement siding can create the look of wood, stucco, or masonry,

making it a versatile option capable of creating various looks. In addition, fibercement siding is known for its durability, with some products coming with warranties lasting as long as 50 years.

Lidl Kicks Off Fall Price-Cutting Campaign Across All 23 Long Island Lidl Stores

On the heels of a new report issued by the Bureau of Labor Statistics showing that the overall cost of groceries rose by 13.5% in the last year, Lidl US announced today that it will introduce rotating price cuts on more than 100 items across all 23 Long Island Lidl stores. Lidl will kick off the pricecutting campaign on September 28, which will continue throughout the Fall, with price drops on more than 100 everyday items rotating throughout

the season. Below is a sample list of products and savings that will kick off with the campaign.

Lidl’s investment in lowering prices for its customers comes as inflationary pressures have led to sharp increases in food prices for many retailers, especially on staples including meat, grains, milk, frozen prepared foods, and other key household products.

“We recognize that inflation and rising food prices are impacting

many families and we hope to give more relief through this Fall pricecutting campaign,” said Lidl US Chief Product Officer and Executive Vice President of Purchasing Stefan Schwarz. “We are committed to offering all of our customers the best value in our stores every day, and we continue to invest in additional ways for customers to save money when we know it matters most.”

Lidl operates 23 stores on Long Island including in Babylon, Center Moriches. Huntington Station, Plainview, East Meadow, East Patchogue, East Northport, Oakdale, Lake Grove, Massapequa, Selden, Franklin Square, Merrick, East Rockaway, Syosset, Farmingdale, Westhampton Beach, Riverhead, Islip, Shirley, W Babylon, Garden City Park, and Commack.

Wood Siding

Homeowners have many choices if they prefer wood siding in their homes. Cedar, cypress, fir, pine, and spruce are just a handful of the many wood siding options homeowners can

choose from. HomeAdvisor notes that cedar shingle siding offers a natural look that blends well in wooded and waterfront landscapes. Wood clapboard siding is another popular option, though it tends to require more maintenance than cedar shingle siding. Homeowners who want wood siding should discuss their options with an experienced siding professional, as many factors, including the choice of wood, must be considered before making a final decision.

Stone And Stone-Veneer Siding

Many homeowners fall in love with the natural appeal of stone, but the price tag, which tends to be costly, may not be as awe-inspiring. HGTV notes that stone can be difficult

to add to an existing home, and doing so may drive the price up even further. Stone siding is durable, and there are many options, including solid stone and natural stone cladding, making this an option capable of providing an array of looks. Stone-veneer siding is less expensive than natural stone and also comes in an array of styles. As is the case with wood, stone siding options are so extensive that homeowners are urged to discuss each one with a siding professional before making their decisions.

These are just a handful of the many siding options homeowners can choose from. Siding can give homes a completely new look, making the choice of siding a significant decision worthy of careful consideration.

Helping You Help Others

The Charity of the Month for September is Harmony Cafe

www.harmonycafeli.org

Harmony Cafe is a local nonprofit organization with a mission to empower people by providing wellness, education and access to affordable nutritious foods, in a socially engaging environment that creates healthy lives.

Rosemarie Mccarthy, the Founder of Harmony Cafe, grew up in a working-class family, where money was tight and food insecurity was sometimes a cause of stress. When she happened upon a mention of the One World Everyone Eats café model in a magazine, she went looking for a cafe to volunteer. This model goes off of the idea of a donation-based cafe that services a diverse socioeconomic range and providing nutritious and delicious meals. It sounded like something to which she wanted to donate her time and energy, but to her surprise, there was nowhere to volunteer in the Long Island region. With grit and determination, she decided to start Harmony Cafe right here on Long Island.

Right now they do not have their own physical cafe, however they have hosted meal events, primarily at the VFW hall on Edwards Street in Patchogue, NY. Their meal events use a Pay-What-You-Can pricing donation model, where anyone can come get a healthy fresh meal and pay only what they can.

When the global pandemic started affecting the Long Island community, the nonprofit organization redirected their mission to assist those in need. This included hosting food drives, grab-ngo sites and free food delivery services. Rosemarie’s vision for this organization is to have a storefront cafe.

Ideally, the cafe would be in or around Patchogue, NY and would

service anyone who walks through their doors. Harmony Cafe is actively looking for the right opportunity to make this happen. Whether you are a chef or someone that is looking for restaurant/cafe space and would like to partner with Harmony Cafe to share the space, or you are someone who knows of a storefront spot that would possibly work as a home for this cafe, please call 631.730.8775 or email info@harmonycafeli.org.

Additionally, volunteers are needed to help their organization continue to grow! You can join their Volunteer Team and help in the following areas:

• Coordinate Fundraisers

• Wellness Chefs

• Wellness Assistant / Instructor (Training Is Provided)

• Fresh Food Donations (Or Supermarket Gift Cards)

• Serve On Their Board Of Directors (Actively looking for a treasurer that has a background in finance or accounting. Retirees are encouraged to apply!)

• Community Outreach

Lastly, Harmony Cafe holds a Free Thanksgiving Dinner each year at Toast Coffeehouse in Patchogue. This year, it will be held on November 22 and there will be live music there as well! The organization is seeking sponsors to help support this great event. Last year the organization proudly served over 300 traditional Thanksgiving restaurant dinners to those in need.

Make A Dining Room More Elegant For Entertaining

The kitchen may be the heart of a home, but when it comes to entertaining, a dining room — if one is present in a house — tends to be the prime gathering spot for meals.

Dining rooms may not be top on the list of spaces to renovate, as they tend to be used infrequently. But a dining room makeover may still be a worthy endeavor. Here are some simple ways to make the dining room more elegant and functional.

• Clear out the clutter. The first step toward improving a dining room eating area is to remove any extraneous items from the space. If the dining room table is not used very often, it likely will become a catch-all for other items, such as bills, newspapers, or kids’ homework. Rather than using the dining space as a makeshift office or homework station, invest in a rolling cart to store those papers and other items. Simply roll it into a closet or another room when it’s time to host a party.

• Hang a statement light. Few decorative items add as much drama and ambiance to a dining space as a new

aesthetic of a home. The light will be a focal point and instantly make the dining area more elegant. Install the light on

a dimmer to adjust the illumination as needed to set the mood.

• Invest in new linens. Purchase coordinating table linens that will be used for special occasions. A decorative table cloth or table runner coupled with cloth napkins and placemats helps to set the scene for the dinner party.

• Add a piece of artwork. Many modern homeowners have eschewed the China Cabinet that once was standard in dining rooms. Rather than a bulky piece of furniture, a large piece of statementmaking artwork or framed photos over a more minimalistic buffet table or small service bar is preferable. Choose artwork that complements the colors in the space.

• Include a centerpiece. Centerpieces add sophistication to the table and tie into the event. Floral arrangements, a bowl or basket of fruit, pine cones or greens from outdoors, or collectibles like shells in a tall canister can serve as centerpieces.

There are many simple ways to dress up dining spaces and make them more elegant.

Tell Us About It!

Islip High School held its second annual #IslipRising event on Aug. 22, a new tradition that started last year when an idea by Superintendent Dr. Dennis O’Hara first came to life. This fall sports season kickoff saw studentathletes and coaches arriving at the school early enough to watch the sunrise, which was at 6:07 a.m., from Buccaneer Stadium.

Let us know about your honors, awards, promotions and other announcements. They are always welcome. Photos can be emailed as well. Send them to editorial@ longislandmediagroup.com.

The 2022 ceremony began with senior Lianna Rivera singing the National Anthem, followed by words of inspiration from John

Sparacio, Islip’s director of health, physical education and athletics.

“This year’s theme is to have fun, work hard, develop new friendships, build upon existing relationships and enjoy every moment out on the fields or in the gymnasiums as much as we can,” Sparacio said. “Put the past in the past, and build today for a better tomorrow.”
