Low Tox Living with Caitlin Reinhart The many threats to our health and environment can be overwhelming, but you can make choices that have a positive impact on your health, home, and family. Caitlin Reinhart will walk attendees through the typical home room-by-room, discussing the risks of commonly used products and suggesting safer, more natural alternatives. Join us to empower yourself and learn simple changes you can make today. NOTICE: It may be the start of cold and flu season, but the library no longer has COVID-19 tests available. All tests were previously made available through a partnership with the Ohio Department of Health (ODH) that ended in May 2025. Public libraries will no longer be receiving test kits from ODH, and we no longer have them available for distribution.
