Yes! The aim is not to take away anyone’s cars — just give more options for a diverse set of needs. Public transit is also an investment in people who are prevented, by economic status, age, or physical disability, from driving. Talent flocks to spaces with access to choices!

@NDLawyer1990 To the detriment of our cities, yes. Both have to co-exist for a healthy state, as young talent increasingly reports that living somewhere where they don’t need a car is a top priority. We’re bleeding talent while places like Denver, Austin, Minneapolis clean up.

I’ve said it many times — in my youth, I was dependent on the programming, amenities, and resources brought by my local library. I shudder to consider my life’s outcomes without accessibility to these spaces. It is morally reprehensible to slash such a public good.

Free breakfast and lunch is critical to tackling food insecurity among our most vulnerable student populations. Investing in our kid’s health outcomes is among the most important thing we can do as a society and we’re so glad to see Michigan take this step as a state
State Budget Office of Michigan@MIStateBudget
Today, @GovWhitmer signed the bipartisan education budget for FY24 that makes the highest state per-student investment in Michigan history, ensures all public school students get free breakfast and lunch, and takes the first step toward free pre-K for all 4-year-olds.

Recent studies have found that crops grown with regenerative practices contain higher levels of vitamins, minerals, and phytochemicals. Ergothioneine, a ‘longevity vitamin,’ stands out as one of the most important in the bunch. buff.ly/3vZ7Jol

Great podcast we’re loving this spring while we put gardens in. One of the best parts of farming is always learning new methods and new science! #compost #farming #urbangardening #urbancompost @PlantsGrowHere

It was a beautiful weekend for a collaboration with @grow_jackson to get their garden at the MLK Center ready for spring! We had around 40 #JacksonMi residents come out to volunteer. It was wonderful to see such a big collaborative spirit between our two organizations!
