A large public health report that investigated the association between green spaces and mental health concluded that “access to nature can significantly contribute to our mental capital and well being”.
One report concluded with the following: “safe, green spaces may be as effective as prescription drugs in treating some forms of mental illnesses”.
I know my children are much happier and healthier looking since we moved from the city to the Monongahela National Forest. A lot less pollution, skies are bluer, and the air is cleaner. We drank from the streams that come off the mountains while hiking in the Cranberry Back country.
We eat wild strawberries, blackberries, and fresh apples,… that are not made by Monsanto. These are Nature-made!
