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?
What was known as the Shelby Branch began in 1918 when the library was housed in old School No. 34. A new branch was constructed in 1965 at the current Shelby Street location. Following a major renovation, the branch reopened in 2011 as the Garfield Park Branch, reflecting the desire of residents to refer to the branch by their beloved and adjacent Garfield Park.
