Red River Market’s Back to School Day

Essentia Health Fargo colleagues had the opportunity to ring the opening bell for the Red River Market’s Back to School Day last month. The market brings together artists, creators, entrepreneurs and businesses that spark connection, drive economic growth and uplift quality of life. Special kudos to Dr. Marasinghe and Kalee Wysuph for bringing fun and engaging activities for the kids!

Essentia Supports East Central School Garden

East Central Schools in Finlayson, MN will soon have a new outdoor learning space centered on healthy living and outdoor education. Community Health Program Manager, Russell Habermann, presented the East Central Garden Committee with $10,000 to begin phase one of creating an outdoor learning space.

This addition to the current school garden will provide East Central students with additional opportunities to learn beyond the traditional classroom walls and promote healthy eating habits Group in front of garden
