Join Marion County Public Health Department’s Nutrition Services in an interactive class to decode packaging and labeling questions. Enjoy a healthy recipe tasting with us as well!
Have you ever picked up a food item in the store and wondered “what does this label really mean?” Are foods safe past their sell-by date? What is the deal with the “non-GMO” and “organic” labels? How do I make sense of the nutrition facts and ingredient lists?
The Spades Park Branch was built with funds from a $120,000 grant by the Andrew Carnegie Foundation and opened in 1912, six months after the opening of the city’s other remaining Carnegie Library, the East Washington Branch. The 7,500-square-foot branch underwent a $610,000 renovation in 1987 and celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2012.
