📰 In the news
AmeriCorps-powered conservation legacy: USU’s Utah Conservation Corps is celebrating 25 years, with more than 3,400 members logging 2.3 million hours to improve trails, restore public land, and expand environmental education across Utah — explore milestones and community initiatives.
Granger student earns top honor: Cache Valley students were among state winners in 2026 Utah High School Clean Air Marketing Contest at USU’s Nora Eccles Harrison Museum. Their PSAs will be used for outreach statewide — read the full story.
Renowned European string ensemble: Chamber Music Society of Logan will host the Goldmund Quartet on March 19 at Utah State University, performing on the Paganini Stradivarius instruments, with classical, contemporary and folk-infused string works — read the full story.
Nothing prepares you for a pet emergency: I learned that the hard way after charging $10k to a credit card for life-saving surgery on my cat, Miss Stache. As soon as we got home, I signed up for Spot. It’s super affordable – and reimburses up to 90% of the bill.
Compare rates for free: The national average for car insurance is around $175/month. Paying more than that? Same, so I did some shopping around and ended up cutting my premium in half. If you haven’t checked in a while, you’re probably overpaying too — here’s the comparison tool I used.
Highlights this week:
|
💎 Local business spotlight
Slice of comfort: When your sweet tooth starts negotiating, Angie’s Restaurant bakes pies daily in-house, fruit or cream, so you can swing by for a slice that tastes like someone’s grandma still runs the kitchen. Ideal for tiny wins, midweek slumps, or bribing yourself to finally fold the laundry.
Fresh blooms, zero fuss: The Fleur Market delivers everyday bouquets and custom designs that look like the photos… airy, artful, and ready the same day around Logan. Save them for birthdays, apologies, or those “I swear I didn’t forget” moments, when a beautiful arrangement says it best.
Chalk up some joy: Elevation Rock Gym brings bouldering, roped climbing, yoga, and youth programs together in one welcoming space. It’s ideal between errands, with room to find your flow and notch small wins… whether you’re new to the wall or leveling up this week.
These aren’t ads or sponsored placements, just some cool nearby spots we think are worth a visit.

🫶 We got your back
Your data is for sale right now: There are over 400 websites selling your info to marketers, political campaigns, and scammers. They’ve got your phone number, home address, relatives’ names… you name it. That’s how robocallers seem to know everything about you before you pick up. You can remove your info one site at a time, or pay a service to do it for you. Here’s what we recommend →
Why your last diet didn’t work: Sustained weight loss is nearly impossible with diet alone. Your body literally fights back by making you hungrier the moment you start restricting calories. That’s why more doctors are recommending GLP-1s. The best part? Getting them has never been easier. We compared three programs to help you find the right fit. See which ones stood out →
What doctors wish every 65+ adult had at home: Physicians call it “long-lie,” and it’s the real reason falls are so dangerous for older adults. It’s not a broken bone… it’s lying on the floor for hours waiting for someone to notice. We dug into the options that actually solve this problem, and one stood out. See which one →
Thinning hair? It only gets worse: A few months ago, I noticed my ponytail getting thinner. I tried the usual stuff (biotin, shampoo, etc.) but mostly just hoped it would fix itself… until I learned that active follicles can permanently go dormant if you don’t do something about it. The good news? You can get treatment that actually works with no office visits or trips to the pharmacy. Check out my favorite online options →

🛍 Divvy Up Children’s Consignment Sale @ Cache County Event Center | Wednesday (3/18) at 10:00 AM – Pro tip from the trenches: clear out the mountain of outgrown sneakers, strollers, and novelty onesies, then restock without paying full retail.
