Like ice cream and a summer day, some things are just made for each other. That’s how we feel about breastfeeding, too.

Breast milk is made especially for your baby. Methodist Medical Center of Oak Ridge, La Leche League, and WIC encourage all new mothers to consider breastfeeding for your baby’s health and development. Remember, breast is best for baby!

To celebrate World Breastfeeding Month, Methodist Medical Center of Oak Ridge, La Leche League, and WIC will host Baby’s Best Fest, a free event featuring a family ice cream social, children’s activities, community resources, and more. Baby’s Best Fest will take place Tuesday, August 5, from 6-7 p.m. at the Bissell Park Playground, located at 1401 Oak Ridge Turnpike.

Ice cream quantities are limited. Bring your picnic blanket, your family, and your friends and show your support for breastfeeding and giving your baby the best start possible!
