Nature Watchby Jim and Lynne Weber
Agarita, a common native barberry, is a medium evergreen shrub whose gray-green holly-like leaflets are joined by yellow flowers in February/March and small red fruit in May through July. The leaflets have sharp points at the ends, so care must be taken to harvest the fruit, which makes an excellent jelly. Another sprawling shrub with thorny, woody stems is Southern Dewberry. A bramble common to sunny meadows and open fields, its white flowers bloom in March/April, followed by berries that resemble blackberries but have a more sweet/tart flavor. Usually found climbing along fencerows and high over other plants in woodland edges and stream sides is the Mustang Grape. Best used for wines and jellies, these vines can grow up to 40 feet long, and produce small clusters of acidic berries that ripen in August and September.
Take some time this fall planting season to seek out and add some of these native fruit and berry plants to your landscape. Not only will you be providing food for several species of birds and mammals, but you’ll have the chance to savor a natural treat for yourself, too!
Send your nature-related questions to [email protected] and we’ll do our best to answer them.
Native Fruits & BerriesAmong the key components of any healthy, natural habitat are the
native plants that provide sustenance for wildlife. In Central Texas, there are several species that provide abundant fruits and berries during the warmer months, most are edible for humans as well as wildlife, and now is the perfect time to plant them!
Common in brushy areas, open woodlands, and stony hillsides, the Texas Persimmon is a small tree (8-12 feet) that is moderately deer resistant. Flowering in March/April, this tree has little green leaves and attractive smooth pale reddish-gray bark that peels off to reveal a whiter trunk. The female trees bear 1-inch fruits that turn from green to black as they ripen in late July to September. Texas or Littleleaf Mulberry, also a large shrub or small tree, produces an edible fruit that is small, fleshy, and berry-like. It varies from red to black and ripens in May, although in ideal conditions this tree is known to produce a large quantity of fruits over a longer period of time, providing much needed food for migrating and nesting birds.
Our native Escarpment Black Cherry is a fast-growing, straight-trunked tree with long clusters of white flowers in April/May, followed by small purple-black cherries ripening in August through October. Although impractical for fresh eating, the cherries are used in juices and wines, and the bark was once used in making cough syrup. This deciduous tree is also unique in that it offers stunning yellow fall color. Another attractive tree is the Mexican Plum, whose dense white flowers appear before the leaves in early spring, and offer a very sweet, heady scent. The plums, which ripen from July to September, are nearly as ornamental as the flowers, as their color varies widely from gold to crimson to purple-black.

THe BulleTinAchoo!!!!
Submitted by Dr. Tenesha Weine
If you live in Austin and other allergen-laden locales, you are certainly familiar with the outward symptoms of airborne allergies. And if you’ve ever rushed to the bathroom after lunch, you may also be familiar with some food allergies and what they do to you. But did you know that depression can actually be a symptom of an allergy at work in your body? So can muscle aches, joint pain, anger and irritability, even an inability to think clearly. The list of allergy symptoms goes on and on.
The exact cause of allergies isn’t known. Western science defines an allergic reaction as the body’s defense mechanism against an allergen or foreign substance. The body’s immune system takes over in an attempt to protect it. Ironically, your body is making you uncomfortable by fighting what are often benign substances.
Allergies to airborne substances, ragweed, mold, dust, mountain juniper, are often indicative of inflammation somewhere in the GI tract. They are typically secondary to a food allergy that is creating the inflammation.
Some allergens are actually inherited, but these are few. In fact, allergic reactions to soy, peanuts, dairy products, and wheat appear to be the only genetic allergies. Changing the pH and calming the
inflammation of the bowels is the key to reducing or eliminating allergies. While it isn’t an overnight process, the results are worth it-living without sinusitis, itchy watery eyes, headaches, pressure, fatigue, drainage, sinus infections, irritable bowels, spastic colon, diarrhea, and constipation.
You may be shocked to discover how many of your seemingly unrelated symptoms are actually allergies. Other symptoms of allergies include migraines, heartburn, fainting, blood-sugar problems, indigestion, and even mood disorders. Often, depression is actually a result of commonly ingested allergens, and many people find they can reduce or eliminate their need for psychotropic medications by modifying their food intake.

Keeping Central Texas Kids Warm for 22 Years
Submitted by Amber Brabham with The Junior League of Austin
For 22 years, Coats for Kids has provided for hundreds of thousands of Central Texas children in need of a warm winter coat. Coats for Kids is an annual Junior League of Austin community project that collects and distributes warm winter coats to eligible children and teenagers in the Central Texas area.
Each year, The Junior League of Austin, Jack Brown Cleaners, KASE 101 and KVUE partner to organize and facilitate the details of the project in an effort to bring the community together to ensure that the children of Central Texas stay warm. Last year approximately 28,000 coats were donated by the community and distributed to children in Central Texas. In order to make sure we have plenty of coats this winter, we need your help in collecting and donating.
Coat donations may be dropped off at your neighborhood Jack Brown Cleaners from November 10 until December 3. There is a need this year to collect “warmer” winter coats. These might include ski coats, wool coats, heavy down or parkas. If you are interested in getting your family, neighbors and co-workers involved, consider organizing a coat drive.
For more information on School and Community Coats Dives contact the Coat Drive Coordinator at [email protected] or call 512.467.8982 ext 294.
Coats for Kids also urges the community to donate their time during sorting week (December 1 – 5) or on distribution day which will be held at the Palmer Events Center on Saturday, December 6. Volunteers must be at least 15 years of age during sorting week and 18 years of age on distribution day. Spanish speaking volunteers are especially needed and are encouraged to sign up for distribution day!
Contac t the Volunteer Coordina tor a t [email protected] for more information. For a complete list of volunteer opportunities, dates and more information log on to www.jlaustin.org.

I know you have seen Jarod’s picture before, but since he is still waiting for a permanent home – a Forever Family – it is important to once again share his story.
Jarod will turn 18 in December. While you may think 18 is the time when kids leave home and are on there own, it sometimes doesn’t work that way for children raised in the foster care system. In fact, it usually never works that way. Although these kids may be on their own, there are ill prepared to live 100% self sufficient, as most kids are.
For Jarod, we would love to have a family in the Austin area. He is in school, enjoying the work and playing football, and wants to continue with his education and eventually, go to college or in the Marines.
If you are willing to learn more about adopting a teenager, or Jarod specifically, please call Tracy Eilers at 512-301-2825 or email the Adoption Coalition of Texas at [email protected] and put “Jarod” in the subject line.
A little more about Jarod…Imagine growing up in an unstable environment. Imagine having to be responsible
for yourself at a very young age. Then, imagine, at 10 years old someone removing you from the only environment you have known and putting you in foster care with strangers. While this is done for the safety and well-being of the child, it is often difficult for children to understand. Sometimes they are sad, hurt, frustrated and angry. They are angry for being in this situation in the first place, angry for being in a strange place, angry because the world has let them down, angry because they now have no control over their future. You see, kids connect to things rather easily, even if it is a bad situation…when that is all you know, that is all you know.
Fast forward seven years and several foster homes later and you are still in foster care, you are angrier than ever because of the lack of control and because you simply do not know how to handle things. You mistrust the system, have difficulty getting along with foster siblings who too come and go and you face a very uncertain future.
So, you have Jarod who is now 17. He is a good kid with a good heart who needs direction and desperately needs someone to love him. Loving him will help give him a foundation for developing self worth – you see, he figures that if no one loves him, what is there to love about himself. Jarod needs someone who is going to help him process his anger and feel stable. He needs a strong forever family with a strong male figure. He needs a family with patience who is going to allow him to work through school at his pace, learn to trust at his pace. The family needs to be okay with baby-steps. Maybe there is a family out there with the mentoring spirit – willing to adopt Jarod and give him a permanent home with no timelines…someone willing to help him finish school and develop plans for the future… most importantly, someone who will allow him to back up and grow up in the right developmental manner, instead of being forced to grow up. You see, for many kids the lack of stability and a family is the foundation on which everything else is built. If you have that mentor spirit and the willingness to take baby steps, please consider Jarod. Adopting a teenager is not easy and you cannot expect him to even resemble 17 years old, he has missed a lot and needs the opportunity to be a youth longer. And, teenagers in general are not easy to parent/mentor. This will take a special family. Did you know you can be single and adopt? Did you know there are no fees to adopt from the foster care system?

Holiday Pet TipsSubmitted by Melissa Todd
As you celebrate the season, it’s important to keep your furry friends safe and stress-free. Household changes and activity can be very hard on pets.
• Be careful with holiday decorations. Many plants and berries (poinsettias, mistletoe, ivy and holly to name a few) can be toxic to pets. Also be careful where you hang ornaments and decorations…the higher the better!
• Gatherings of people and holiday parties can frighten animals. Plan a safe place for them to retreat too when company arrives or when Halloween doorbells are ringing.
• Holiday leftovers can wreak havoc with your pet’s digestive system. This is especially true with older pets. Turkey drippings, poultry bones and chocolate can all result in a trip to the emergency vet.

She was a sales representative with IBM for 14 years before settling in Austin 14 years ago with her husband and two children. In March,2003, Rebecca, along with a small group of women committed to making a positive change in the community, founded Impact Austin. The concept-bringing women and their financial resources together to make a profound impact in Austin-was simple and inspirational. Since its inception, Impact Austin has grown to over 500 members and has given over $1.5 million to the community. In this month of Thanksgiving we will be uplifted by this one women’s quest plus we will also be able to hear from a person who has personally benefited from this program.
