Advisor’s Letter

Hello HCE Members, I am writing this during one of those Wisconsin fall days that has three seasons

in one day. We wake up and it's 50 degrees, it turns to 80 degrees, and then by

nightfall there is a definite nip in the air that has me wondering when my annual

flowers are done for. I love this season. I love the opportunity for reflection

and preparation for the holidays ahead. In my household all of us celebrate our

birthdays during this season. Our daughters’ birthdays are November 20 and

25—my dad said goodbye to opening season of hunting for awhile when they

were little… he lamented on our poor planning every year with a smile. What

brings you joy during this season?

I am very much looking forward to connecting with you at the Annual Meeting.

It's a wonderful time to talk about the year past and the year ahead. I LOVE to

plan new ideas and learn about how we can continue to provide you the

opportunity to connect with each other and your community. Take some time

to develop your wish list, and I have some ideas on how we can use your help

too!!

See you in a week!!

Sincerely , Human Development and Relationship Educator

Our condolences on the passing of

Barb Kempen

Barb was a member of Gillingham Club.

Senior Living/Housing

Originally published by the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection in the

October, 2016 “Wisconsin Senior Guide”

As an alternative for seniors not needing or wanting to move into an assisted

living situation, an increasing number of private businesses are offering

senior housing. With senior housing, elderly buyers may purchase an

individual unit and pay annual maintenance fees.

In some cases, the businesses will agree in advance to purchase back or

resell the unit if the owner moves or passes away.

Tips before signing or investing:

Take your time and read through the contract thoroughly, ask questions,

and fully understand the written details of the contract offer.

Have a friend, loved one, or other third party (possibly an attorney) offer

a second opinion on the contract offer.

Find out if the Bureau of Consumer Protection and the Better Business

Bureau have complaints against the company you are considering.

If a money-back or buy-back guarantee is offered:

Know whether the return of your original investment is dependent upon

the sale of your unit (or not), and what happens if other comparable units

are for sale at the same time.

Know what percentage of your original investment will be returned to

you or your estate.

Get written details on how the funds will be secured to ensure payment of

a future buy back.

Wisconsin’s Healthy Produce and Nutrition (summarized transcript)

Published on August 16, 2019 by Division of Extension: Full transcript can be found at:

https://fyi.extension.wisc.edu/news/2019/08/16/wi-healthy-produce-nutrition/

What kinds of produce are in season right now?

Lots of stuff is in season right now, we’re probably in the height of the produce

season for people’s backyard gardens. There could be a few things that are

starting to be passed, like some of the berries, although some things like

raspberries will bear again. The greens and vegetables in season now are

tomatoes, green beans, peas, and many others. One that’s really great right now

is corn on the cob. Almost everybody understands that if you pick up corn on

the cob from a farm stand that came out of the field today, it’s going to be

delicious and fresh on your table this evening.

What does this produce mean for nutrition, or what kinds of nutritional

benefits do we get from this produce?

Eating whole foods is one of the best ways to improve health. Whole foods are

things like fresh produce—apples and greens and instead of foods that are more

highly processed. Right now, since so many things are in season, these are also

delicious and readily available. These foods can be found in your backyard

garden, farmer’s markets, or a roadside stands. Even in our grocery stores,

there’s lots of fresh produce available that would be healthy. These foods

provide micro nutrients and fiber and are low in calories and fat, greatly

contributing to a healthy diet.

What about produce that is still really good for you but isn’t necessarily

fresh?

Sometimes we don’t have access to fresh produce or we have a recipe that’s

going to use something that isn’t in season right now. Canned and frozen

vegetables are also an excellent source of nutrition. There are some things you

can throw in the freezer and have quickly if you don’t have time to make

something fresh. As long as you pay attention to the ingredients and make sure

there isn’t a lot of sodium, sauces, or fat, they’re also an excellent choice.

As we’re moving out of summer into the fall season, what should we be

looking for produce-wise, nutrition-wise, or seasonal that you might see?

We’ll see more of what we might call winter vegetables available. Things like

pumpkins, squash, and cabbage. Some things won’t be as available, like

berries, but some of those things will be available in the supermarket, imported

from other places. That’s one benefits of supermarkets today—they can access

fruits and vegetables that are out of season so that we can continue to have


things like citrus fruits which are high in vitamin C throughout the winter and

not just have them in summer or not just if you live in Florida.

What kinds of resources are available for people to look up; what points of

contact are there for produce and intuition?

At Extension we have The Learning Store, and we recently put in a number of

fact sheets on using fresh fruits and vegetables. They’re one sided and tell how

to select a fruit or a vegetable, how to store it, and how to prepare it. Those

would be an excellent resource for people to get ideas on how to use some of

the things that they’re seeing, for instance at the farmer’s market, but we also

want people to do this safely. One of our Extension specialists, Barb Ingham,

has a site called “Safe and Healthy: Preparing and Preserving Food at Home,”

within the Division of Extension that talks about how to use produce safely.

She has lots of resources on how to clean and rinse produce to reduce your

chances of having a foodborne illness. She also has lots of excellent resources

on preserving food. For example, you might have an abundance of tomatoes

from your garden and you can’t eat them all and you wish to can them or freeze

them. She has lots of tips on how to do that and how to do that safely.

Do you have any tips or tricks for nutrition or maybe what fresh produce

you’re a big fan of this season?

I’m a big fan of corn on the cob and raspberries. Those are two of my favorites.

I have some raspberries in my yard. They’re not doing so well because they’re

not in a spot that’s sunny enough. But I do love that and I think one of the

messages we use a lot in nutrition is variety in moderation. With fruits and

vegetables we also say eat the rainbow—eat as many different colors of fruits

and vegetables in the widest variety that you have access to that provides the

widest variety of nutrition as well. There’s a lot of variety in tastes and the

ways that you can use them in your meals. So I would say variety, moderation,

and eat the rainbow.

using fresh fruits and vegetables is

Fall Colors Include the Orange and Red Slow Moving Vehicle Signs

on Farm Equipment on Roads

Published on September 30, 2019 by Division of Extension

https://fyi.extension.wisc.edu/news/2019/09/30/fall-road-safety/

If you’re heading out to the rural areas to

pick pumpkins and apples or check out the

fall colors, you’re likely to encounter slow

moving farm equipment on the road as fall

harvest season is underway throughout the

state. That means it’s time for all drivers

to be especially aware of farm equipment

and slow down when encountering slow

moving farm equipment.

“Farm equipment is big, slow, and not very maneuverable; it doesn’t behave

like cars and trucks when it comes to speed, turning, or braking,” said Cheryl

Skjolaas, Agricultural Safety Specialist in the University of Wisconsin-Madison

Division of Extension and the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences. “Its

size makes it hard to move over quickly and it will take longer for it to turn into

driveways or intersections. It is also difficult for the farm implement operator

to see other vehicles that are following or passing farm equipment.”

The combination of slow traveling farm equipment and faster motor vehicles

means the time before the two meet can be seconds. Most farm equipment is

operating at speeds under 25 mph. A motor vehicle coming up behind a farm

implement has only seconds to stop before a crash may occur. Any type of

distracted driving – talking on cellphone, checking a text message, being tired-

can make stopping without a crash almost impossible.

Skjolaas, UW Center for Agricultural Safety and Health Outreach Specialist

said, “For the motorists, we really want you to be taking your time, looking up

the road a distance for that slow moving farm machinery, and when you see

something in the distance, start slowing down because if that equipment is

operating 15 miles per hour and you’re traveling 55 miles per hour, we’re

talking in 300 feet you have like 3 seconds to be slowing down.”

Slower speeds also mean that motorists are going to be tempted to pass farm

implements. Skjolaas reminds motorists that it is illegal to pass a farm

implement or an agricultural commercial motor vehicle in a no passing zone.

A motorist always has the responsibility to make sure that there’s a safe passing


distance; making the decision to pass is difficult with farm implements. Look

at those passing zones where you can legally pass the farm equipment, but still,

really make that determination that you have enough distance to pass that farm

equipment, that there’s enough width to the roadway that you can safely get

around that farm equipment, and if you’re approaching a controlled intersection

– one that has stop signs or stoplights – that you’re going to be able to give that

operator of that farm equipment time enough to stop.

Skjolaas offered some tips and reminders for motorists during the fall harvest

season:

Look for lighting and marking on the farm implements. Farm machinery

that usually travels less than 25 miles per hour (mph) is required to display

a ‘slow moving vehicle’ or SMV emblem on the back. It is an orange and

red triangle visible to the rear on either the left hand side of the tractor or

towing implement or the rear most towed vehicle. This is a key marking

that a driver is approaching a farm implement.

Keep a safe distance back. The farm vehicle operator may not be able to

see around the equipment, so don’t assume that the operator knows you are

approaching. Similar to semi-trucks, many use large extended mirrors.

When a driver follows too closely, the vehicle isn’t visible to the farm

equipment operator.

Check for turn signals. On farm tractors or self-propelled machines like

combines, the flashing lights are also turn signals. When following slow

moving machines for a distance, it is easy to miss that operator has signaled

for a turn. Or watch for the operator to use a hand signal when signal lights

are not present.

During hours of darkness and low light situations when visibility is less

than 500 feet, such as when foggy or raining, everyone should have

headlights on.

Farm implements may be traveling on roads where they are normally not

expected. For example, farmers may use local streets or highways to

transport grain to storage facilities.

A road sign to watch for is a yellow and black warning sign with the

symbol of a farmer driving a tractor. These signs are within 500 feet of a

driveway to alert motorists of a farm or field drive with an obstructed view

such as on a hill or around a curve.

How Long Does Information Stay in Your Credit Report?

Originally published on September 10, 2019 by PEGGY OLIVE https://fyi.extension.wisc.edu/creditreport/2019/09/10/how-long-does-information-stay-in-your-credit-report/

The UW “Check Your Free Credit Report” Campaign conducts an annual year-end

survey of participants. In 2018, 35% of respondents reported knowing very little or

nothing about how long information stays in a report. It can be helpful to understand

what types of information appears on a credit report and how long that information is

legally allowed to appear on a report from the three major credit reporting bureaus.

Positive or satisfactory account information, such as on-time credit card and loan

payments, will appear in a credit report for as long as the credit card or loan is still

open and active. Once you close a credit card or pay off a loan, that positive

information typically stops showing up in a credit report 10 years after the account is

closed.

Negative or adverse account information could include missed or late payments, debts

that were sent to a collection agency, or were “charged off” meaning that the company

reported the debt as lost income and may have sold the debt to a collection agency.

Negative items can legally be removed from a credit report if it has been more than

seven years from the date the debt first became overdue. Note that a Chapter 10

bankruptcy can also be removed after seven years, but that a Chapter 7 bankruptcy is

allowed to remain on a credit report for 10 years. One reason to review your credit

report regularly is to check if any old items are listed and to contact the credit bureau

to ask for older negative information to be taken off.

Even if debt does not appear on a credit report, the credit reporting bureaus still keep

your older debt on file. The bureaus can then release the information when you apply

for the following: credit of $150,000 or more, such as a mortgage, life insurance with

a face value of $150,000 or more, or a job with an annual salary of $75,000 or more.

It is also important to know that although debt may not show up on a credit report

after seven years, a person may still owe the debt and be taken to court, depending on

the state and the type of debt.

Inquiries that appear on credit reports are often another point of confusion since there

are two different types of inquiries. Regular or hard inquiries appear in a report when

you apply for credit or buy insurance, for example. These hard inquiries stay on a

report for two years, can be seen by all creditors who look up your report, and will

usually lower a credit score by several points for many months. Account review,

promotional, or soft inquiries are when companies review your credit information to

see if you qualify for their services or when you check your own credit report. You

are the only one who sees these types of soft inquiries and they do not affect your

credit score.
