Rural Taxi Service Could Come to Hwy 69 Corridor

The Aging & Disability Resource Center is here to help people remain independent and living in their own home through services and information. One of the challenges we regularly see an aging population face is that of transportation. Currently in Green County, the ADRC operates a shuttle service that brings people into Monroe from the various smaller communities as well out to Madison, Janesville, or Freeport, but we also recognize that many times getting around your own community or to other smaller communities may be a challenge.

Single Oak Farm Annual Country Garden Stroll

As you approach the Single Oak Farm located at 1051 Highway 92, you see what looks like a well-kept working farm as are most farms are in that area…all the requisite farm buildings, nice white farm house, well maintained lawn and a splendid view. But, when you get to the driveway into Single Oak Farm and take a look at the beautiful iron farm sign, one instinctively says to themselves, hmmm, there’s more to this farm than meets the eye.

Naturally Speaking

We come to recognize many plants, animals, even individuals by their general appearance.  Lumping characters together in our minds, this general appearance often works quite well.
Gestalt is the term for these physical and biological configurations of many elements unified as a whole.  If it looks like a duck or if it looks like an elm tree, chances are good that it is a duck, or an American elm.
