🌱 River Valley Microfarm Feature Story 🌱

We're thrilled to highlight this inspiring feature from the Ohio Department of Health about the microfarm at River Valley Local Schools. Students are able to learn about sustainable farming, nutrition, and healthy living through hands-on experience.

Through our Creating Healthy Communities program, we were proud to help bring this project to life, supporting fresh produce for school meals and a living classroom for lifelong skills.

Thanks to our partnership with RV FARM and shared vision, students are harvesting lessons in wellness, sustainability, and local food systems, as well as enjoying the fruits (and veggies!) of their labor.

📢 Gonorrhea cases are increasing in Marion County.
Over the last month, more people have been diagnosed. 📈
Protect yourself and others — here’s how:

✅ Get Tested Regularly – Especially with new or multiple partners
📍 MPH S*xual Health Clinic: Tuesdays
📞 Call 740-387-6520 to schedule

✅ Limit S*xual Partners – Fewer partners = lower risk
✅ Use Condoms/Dental Dams – Every time, the right way
✅ Avoid S*x if Symptoms Are Present
🔹Vaginal/Penile Discharge
🔹 Burning urination
🔹 Pelvic/testicular pain
🔹 Throat/anal itching

🚨 Untreated gonorrhea can lead to serious and permanent complications like infertility.
💉 Treatment typically involves one antibiotic shot
❗ No s*x until your doctor says it's safe!

Stay safe. Get tested. Protect your health.
