impacting the ability of future residents to meet new and changing
needs. Addressing environmental awareness, Stella will highlight
innovative ways to use plant material to clean air, soil and water and
to restore our ecological systems. Topics include dry gardening, plant
buffer zones, the lawn, and invasive species. New directions in water
management concentrate on the permeable ground plane, mulches and
natural swimming pools without chemicals. Heirloom and unusual
varieties of herbs, vegetables, fruits and flowers bind us to our
past; Stella will discuss why it is important to preserve the full
range of genetic possibilities of such plants for the future. To

Unwanted medication take-back day

Dear fellow Hanoverians:
* *
*Do you have unwanted medication(s) you need to dispose of?*
* *
The U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (D.E.A.) is coordinating, with the
Hanover Board of Health and the Hanover Police Department, a
nationwide one-day event to take back unwanted medications on
*Saturday, September 29, 2012 at the Hanover Senior Center, 665 Center
Street, Hanover, between the hours of 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.*

This national initiative will provide an opportunity for the public to
surrender pharmaceutical controlled substances and other medications
to law enforcement officers for destruction. Expired, unused or
unwanted substances in our homes are a potential source of supply for
the increasing abuse of pharmaceutical drugs in the United States and
an unacceptable risk to public health and safety.

For more information, please contact health@hanover-ma.gov

.
They also need volunteers! They will need volunteers for set-up,
clean-up and people to man the flea market in 2 hour shifts.
Volunteers with pick-up trucks are needed for the cleanup. Please
contact Kathy Miller at (781) 826-5170 or raymiller23@verizon.net

Finally, please come and shop the flea market on the 22nd. There will
