People do that here.” South Georgia Connections “helped me figure out the town before my wife got here, especially the maps and restaurant coupons”, he said. A lot of the materials in the welcome packet were things his wife was looking for, such as pet care. Wilber is director of Diversified Enterprises, which employs 125 people and provides support services to people with developmental disabilities in eight counties in South Georgia. Gary & Sue Smith We moved to Lakeland from Pennsylvania. My son and family who were stationed here at Moody Air Force base, liked Lakeland so well they decided upon retiring and making Lakeland their permanent home. Zellna Shaw, who represented South Georgia Connections, visited us to give us information and coupons to help us get acquainted with the community. First of all, I must say Zellna has such an outgoing personality, you couldn’t help but like her. She sat down with my husband Gary and I and showed us all the information, from the churches in the area, of which we joined one, to the local attractions, to the many businesses. Thanks to your service, we are truly blessed to now be part of this community. Sincerely, Gary & Sue Smith www.fyisouthgeorgia.com 9 GETTING CONNECTED Moving is not easy; adjusting to living in a new city can be painful and difficult. However, it’s also a chance to start your life in a new community and make it even better than it was before. Whatever your attitude toward the move, the fact is there are a lot of decisions that have to be made. You will more than likely need to find a new house, a new school if you have children, new job, new doctors, new friends, and new routines. Here are a few things that can help you see the brighter side of a move and appreciate your new beginning: 1. Moving means relinquishing control of all your material possessions as soon as the moving truck leaves your driveway. Remember that the most important things in your life are the people in your life, not things. 2. Good communication is the key to making a smoother transition in a new place. Talk to your spouse about how you are feeling and be open to the needs of your children. Everyone adjusts differently to a move. 3. Experience your new culture by seeking out local restaurants and cultural opportunities. 4. To find where the locals like to eat, visit www.fyidining.com. This directory will also show what restaurants offer military discounts and kid’s specials. 5. Think permanent, not temporary! Oswald Chambers once said, “Many of us refuse to grow where we are put; consequently, we take root nowhere.” Resolve to bloom where you are planted. 6. Settle in with rituals and traditions! Start a new tradition with this move, or continue with an old tradition that brings continuity to your family. 7. Southern Hospitality is part of our culture. Be a good neighbor. Often, we wait for the neighbors to reach out first. Take the first step, share fresh baked cookies with your next door neighbor. This could be a great beginning to a new friendship! Patti Minton and Karen Reissiger, co-owners of South Georgia Connections, have been welcoming newcomers to the South Georgia area for over 20 years. They strive to help new families get orientated to the community and connected with trusted local businesses and services. South Georgia Connections did a great job of helping our family in our move from Germany to South Georgia. With the outstanding support of Karen, we found a new home and school for our child within a few days. She was well prepared and did a great job helping us to quickly fall in love with the South. The Till Family 10 2017-2018 FYi* South Georgia RAISED BED VEGETABLE GARDENING Raised vegetable beds are a great way to get started if you are new to vegetable gardening. They are relatively easy to build and you can make them fit into the space that works in your yard. To build your raised garden bed, you first need to choose a sunny, level location and design the area that you plan to use. Most beds are 3 to 5 feet across for easy access and length is limited only by your imagination. Leaving pathways around the beds keeps soil from being compacted and endangering your plants. Use lumber to build the beds and lay down landscape fabric on the bottom of each bed area, to allow water to penetrate and keep weeds from growing. After building your raised beds, you will need a truckload of top soil with a compost mixture. This soil will be loose and fertile, have good drainage, aeration, and roots will penetrate easily guaranteeing you a better yield. After filling your raised bed half-full of soil, cover your entire raised bed with plants, following the recommended planting depths and distances between rows. Raised beds for vegetable gardening come in various sizes. Lowndes County Master Gardener, Annie Barbas says that one 4 X 8 box can feed a family of four all winter with collards, broccoli, carrots, and radishes. Nine of our local schools have been helped through local businesses and the master gardeners in the area with producing some of their own food for the children. At the schools, students are taught to use raised beds and have also planted orchards. Locally grown food not only tastes better but also encourages children in learning to grow their own food.

  • Atlantarealestateforum.Com: Valentine's Day Fun at Georgia
    Valentine’s Day Fun at Georgia State Parks Jan 31, 2017 | Mandy Holm Fall in love with Georgia’s natural history this Valentine’s Day; Georgia State Parks have plenty of events to choose from, from paddling and exploring suspension bridges under the moonlight, to dinner and dancing or a haunting history tour. North Georgia In mountainous northeast Georgia, Tallulah Gorge State Park is offering a short moonlit hike to the suspension bridge on the edge of the gorge. Enjoy a hike in the moonlight Friday, February 10 through Sunday, February 12. The cost is $5 to attend plus $5 for parking, and participants will need to register in advance. Call 706-754-7981 to register. West of Tallulah Gorge near Chatsworth is Fort Mountain State Park. On Valentine’s Day, the park is hosting the Hidden Heart Valentine’s Day Hike from 3p.m. to 4:30 p.m. When the Civilian Conservation Corps built the 38-foot fire tower at Fort Mountain in the 1930s, a young mason working on the project carved a heart out of stone and left it in the tower to remind him of his love back home. Hike participants will see the stone and learn about the love story behind this romantic gesture. The cost of attendance is $5 and participants can register by calling 706-422-1932. In Newnan, Chattahoochee Bend State Park is holding its Valentine’s Day Luminary Riverside Stroll from 6 to 8 p.m. on Saturday, February 11. The stroll is a quiet, self-guided sunset hike along the riverside just for you and your other half.
