Fermented Foods: Your Ultimate GuideThursday, January 24: 7pm
Registration required. Visit or call the library: 724-625-9048 |

Fermented foods are full of flavor and health benefits; however, for some people it takes time to develop a taste for them. They are made by converting sugars and starches that are present in vegetables, fruits, milk, and other foods into organic acids by bacteria and yeast. Some examples of fermented foods include raw sauerkraut, kimchi, lacto-fermented pickles, miso, yogurt, and kefir. These foods are alive and teeming with beneficial bacteria that keep our digestive system healthy.
80% of our immunity resides in our gut, thus eating probiotic foods strengthens our immune system and ensures protection from outside invaders. There are plenty of benefits you can gain from eating fermented foods on a regular basis. Come and learn what they are along with some sample tasting!

History & Mission
The Woman's Club of Mars, a service oriented social group, has worked for the community since its inception in 1926. The Club began as a small reading group known as "The Literary Club of Mars." Two years later it joined with the General Federation of Woman's Clubs, and several years later changed its name to "The Woman's Club of Mars." The women of the Literary Club used their own books to form a small volunteer public library that evolved into the present Mars Area Public Library. The library has always been a major focus of the Club. The Women's Club purchased many books, provided a variety of furnishings, and donated money to the building fund, as well as given encouragement and time. The Women's Club of Mars is currently looking new members. If you are looking for an excellent volunteering opportunity, please consider joining. In Memory: Shirley Pinkerton Library Supporter & Woman's Club of Mars Member. Lovingly referred to as the "Doll Lady" |
