Pawpaws are fairly delicate fruits that bruise easily, which is why you aren’t likely to find them in the produce section of the grocery store. Luckily, they can be found throughout Ohio if you’re up for some foraging, or at certain farmers markets and festivals.

At room temperature, you can only expect to get 2-3 days out of your pawpaws. You can store them in a refrigerator for about a week. If you don’t want to eat them raw, you can always substitute papaw for a variety of fruits in recipes to make frozen yogurt, sorbet, and other desserts and baked goods.

When it comes to foraging for pawpaws, it’s important to make sure that you’re not in an area where picking is prohibited. You can’t forage in the Metro Parks here in Columbus, but there are state forests where collecting wild-grown fruit is allowed.

Andrew Moore, author of Pawpaw: In Search of America’s Forgotten Fruit, explained the perfect way to eat a pawpaw:

“The best thing you can do with a ripe, fresh pawpaw is just to eat it out of hand. Cut it in half, scoop it out and eat it like a custard in a cup, which is essentially what it is.”

If you forage or purchase pawpaws this year and fall in love, consider adding some pawpaw trees to your yard or garden. The trees have great pest resistance and they have a uniquely tropical appearance.

They also happen to be the only host plant for the zebra swallowtail butterfly, which means you’ll be giving these beautiful pollinators.

A visit to Integration Farms will give you an opportunity to see just how versatile this fruit really is. The farm produces a wide variety of pawpaw-based products, everything from salsa to pawpaw pulp.

Pawpaws are in season throughout September and October and one of the easiest places to get your paws on pawpaws has to be the Ohio Pawpaw Festival. This annual fest, now in it’s 27th year, celebrates our delicious native fruit with live music, vendors, games, activities, food, and more. The festival will be held at Lake Snowdon in Albany, September 12-14, 2025.

The Ohio Division of Wildlife is asking people to report dead or sick deer as they track an outbreak of epizootic hemorrhagic disease (EHD) across the state.

EHD is spread by tiny biting flies called midges.

While it is not dangerous to humans or pets, it can hit deer populations hard. Once bitten, deer typically start showing symptoms in just a few days, like acting disoriented, losing their usual fear of people, or just seeming off. Unfortunately, there is no treatment, and many deer die within 36 hours of symptoms appearing.

Right now, the largest number of reports are coming from Athens and Washington counties near the Pennsylvania border, but confirmed cases have also popped up in Union, Morrow, Fairfield, and Guernsey counties. Dead deer are often found near water and may show swelling around the head, neck, or eyelids.

While this might sound alarming, experts say deer populations usually bounce back within a couple of years after an outbreak. Still, hunters in affected areas might notice fewer deer and possibly tighter bag limits in future seasons. For now, the rules for this fall’s bow hunting season, starting September 27, are not changing.

The good news is that EHD does not spread to humans.

Eating venison from an infected deer is not considered risky either, but ODNR says you should never eat an animal that looks sick, since you cannot know what it is carrying without testing.

So what should you do if you spot a deer that looks sick or find one that is already dead? Report it to the Division of Wildlife’s online wildlife reporting system. Your reports help officials track how widespread and severe the outbreak is.

In the meantime, if you see a deer that seems a little too friendly or is hanging out in the wrong places, keep your distance and make a note for the folks at ODNR.

The new two-lane ramp replaces the old loop ramp, which often forced drivers into tricky weaving and merging situations. Now, traffic flows over both directions of I-270, with the left lane continuing onto I-70 eastbound and the right lane exiting to Brice Road.

According to ODOT, this should help cut down congestion and make commutes safer for the thousands of drivers who use this corridor every day.

This ramp is just the first phase of a $76 million project that began in 2022.

That phase also added a new lane on I-70 eastbound between I-270 and Brice Road and reworked the I-270 northbound ramp to improve traffic flow. The remaining work in this phase is expected to wrap up this fall.

Looking ahead, ODOT is already moving on to the next phase, a nearly $90 million effort to tackle I-70 westbound from Brice Road to I-270. That project includes reconstructing the Brice Road bridge and further reconfiguring interchanges to ease congestion.

The bigger picture? A smoother, safer ride between downtown Columbus and eastern Ohio, accommodating the area’s growing travel demand.

According to the Ohio Department of Health, infection rates in mosquitoes haven’t hit numbers like this since 2012, and the latest mosquito trap maps from Columbus Public Health show red dots, indicating positive tests, scattered more widely than usual across the city.

Health Commissioner Dr. Mysheika Roberts says the wet summer is a big reason why.

“We’ve had a rainy season with multiple days of rain, and so it’s an important reminder to everyone that they should do everything they can on their property to get rid of standing water,” she told NBC4.

Even a few tablespoons can become a breeding ground, and within a week, you’ve got a new generation of buzzing, biting neighbors.

This week, CPH set out another round of traps to test mosquito pools across the city.

So far, there’s only been one confirmed human case of West Nile in Columbus this year, plus another in northwest Ohio. While most people bitten by an infected mosquito won’t develop symptoms, the virus can be more serious for people over 50 and those with weakened immune systems.

The best way to lower your risk?

Keep mosquitoes from setting up shop in your yard: empty buckets, bird baths, clogged gutters, and kiddie pools regularly; keep screens in good repair; and wear light-colored, loose-fitting clothes when outside, and use bug spray.

This isn’t a “panic and lock yourself inside” kind of situation. We all just need to be a little more diligent, especially at dusk and dawn, to keep ourselves safe!

The changes debut on August 30, when Ohio State opens the season at home against Texas in what is already being called one of the biggest season openers in college football history.

Here is what is changing this fall:

Victory Bell

The Alpha Phi Omega Victory Bell will still ring after every Buckeye win, but it will now sound before kickoff as well. Archie Griffin will serve as the first pregame bell ringer, and future honorees will be selected prior to each home game. The bell will also sound on every defensive third down to rally the crowd.

THE Towel

Fans at the home opener will receive THE Towel in scarlet and gray to wave during the game. The towels will also be sold for fans wanting to purchase one later in the season.
Color Outs

Three themed “color out” games will take place this season:

• Scarlet the ’Shoe — Aug. 30 vs Texas
• Helmet Stripe — Sept. 13 vs Ohio
• Wear Black — Nov. 1 vs Penn State

Defend the ’Shoe

A new feature on the stadium video board will track crowd performance. Each time the visiting offense commits a false start or takes a timeout believed to be caused by crowd noise, playoff-style Buckeye Leaves will be awarded to Ohio State fans, with a season-long tally kept on the screen.

Band Relocation

The Best Damn Band in the Land is moving back to the north end of the stadium, which was its traditional location before the 2001 renovation. The change includes new on-field speakers and microphones to amplify performances. Hang On Sloopy will still be played between the third and fourth quarters, but the timing may vary to maximize crowd impact.

Soundtrack and In-Game Presentation

A new curated music playlist will include songs by Columbus band Caamp and other artists to intensify the in-game atmosphere. Added features include new Brutus Buckeye entrances each game, relocation of the Block O student section to the south stands, enhanced videoboard replays and live stats, and fewer on-field presentations during breaks.
Looking Ahead

As a separate project, Ohio State has also announced that premium seating will be added to the south end zone before the 2026 season.

From towels to bell ringers to new music and traditions, Ohio Stadium is set for a major refresh focused on giving Buckeye fans the most exciting in-stadium experience in college football.

Feeling inspired to build one of your own? Here’s everything you need to know to launch a Little Free Library right here in Columbus.

Step 1: Get Permission And Pick Your Spot

First things first — you’ll need a place to put it. If you own your home or have a friendly landlord, great! Popular locations include front yards, near the sidewalk, or alongside driveways with good foot traffic. Want to place one in a park, school, or public space? You’ll need written approval from the property owner, HOA, or the City of Columbus first.

Step 2: Build (Or Buy) Your Library Box

There are two routes here: craft one yourself from scratch or buy a pre-built library box from littlefreelibrary.org. DIY builders often upcycle old cabinets, birdhouses, or create custom designs, just make sure it’s waterproof, sturdy, about the size of a mailbox or bigger, and has a see-through door so passersby can peek inside.

Personalize it with bright paint or a theme (kids’ library, genre box, sci-fi only, go wild).

Step 3: Register With Little Free Library

Once your box is ready to go, register it officially at littlefreelibrary.org. Registration costs $40–$89 and assigns your library a unique charter number. You’ll receive a metal plaque and your library will appear on the Little Free Library world map, so people near and far can find it.

Step 4: Stock It With Books

Time to fill those shelves. Start with 15–20 books from your own collection, thrift stores, yard sales, or Half Price Books. Include a mix of genres — fiction, kids’ books, memoirs, cookbooks, you name it. Add a note encouraging people to take a book, leave a book.

Hot tip: check in regularly to restock, tidy, and make sure you still have a variety.

Step 5: Celebrate And Spread The Word

Once it’s up, let the neighborhood know! Post photos on social media, invite friends and neighbors to contribute books, and consider hosting a mini grand opening. Some library owners even decorate for the seasons or partner with local schools and Little Bookworm clubs.

Bonus: Add Your Personal Touch

Want to go above and beyond? Add a journal so visitors can write notes, include bookmarks, seed packets, or coloring pages for kids. A community chalkboard is another fun way for neighbors to connect.

Ready to join Columbus’s ever-growing network of Little Free Libraries? With a weekend of effort and a stack of books you’re willing to part with, you can create something truly magical and give passersby one more reason to slow down, smile, and flip through the pages.

The post How To Start Your Own Little Free Library In Columbus appeared first on Columbus Navigator.

These were accurate words back in 1929, as anyone who has ever looked at a riverfront photo of Downtown- or attended a laser show in the 1980s- would recognize the former Ohio Departments of State building, now known as the Ohio Judicial Center.

The 14-story, white marble building has been front and center of the riverfront skyline since 1932, one of the most prominent buildings constructed as part of the city’s effort to remake the banks of the Scioto. While it has become a landmark for Columbus, it almost didn’t survive its own construction.

Neglect and Calamity Begin Rebirth

Long before the Scioto Mile, the Greenways or the Ohio Departments of State Building were ever conceived, the Scioto riverfront was a black eye in Columbus. There were no less than two dozen outlets that dumped the city’s untreated sewage directly into the river system between Clintonville and the South Side.

The Downtown portion of the Scioto had little development beyond mills, smoke-belching factories and ramshackle housing, all of which was occasionally damaged or swept away by flooding. The riverfront was a foul, unpleasant place to be, and the poor conditions were an endless complaint for residents and an embarrassment to city leaders.

The outbreak of WWI largely ground those plans to a halt, however, and it wasn’t until 3 years after the war ended that the push for the civic center would gain steam again by way of another type of firefight.

In 1921, the old City Hall burned to the ground, and it became an urgent necessity to begin planning for another. In conjunction with those plans, work also finally began on converting the eastern banks of the river from dirt to a concrete “sea wall” to help manage future flooding.

By the following year, the Scioto had been widened through Downtown and more than 1.5 miles of the “sea wall” had been constructed down to Broad Street. The first specific buildings for the civic center had also been proposed- the new City Hall at West Broad and Scioto Street, a Masonic Temple at Gay and Scioto, and a new Central High School on the Scioto Peninsula.

By the late 1920s, most of those projects- along with a new police headquarters on Gay and an art museum on Broad- had either been completed or started construction. The eventual site for the Ohio Departments of State building was still proposed as “Victory Park” to commemorate World War I.

However, as civic center projects were completed and the riverfront improved, the State of Ohio soon began to consider the park site, along with about a dozen other locations, for a long-sought office building. State departments were scattered throughout Downtown in overcrowded, makeshift spaces, so they wanted a single, larger building in which to consolidate those offices. City leaders wanted the office building on the riverfront, knowing that such a project would be a great addition to the civic center concept. In its zeal to sell the plot of land to Ohio, the city created a list of arguments to entice the State to formally choose the site. Among those arguments was a claim that would prove both ironic and premature:
“Plenty of light and air is assured with practically no fire hazard.”

Blast Rocks Downtown, Speculation Begins

Construction on the building progressed without major incident, aside from the occasional labor disagreement, and was nearly complete by the second week of April, 1932. Final inspections were planned and the building had been heavily cleaned of construction dust and debris. At 2:45PM on the afternoon of Thursday, April 14th, a violent explosion ripped through the lower levels of the central and southern parts of the building. Floors buckled, walls collapsed and chunks of marble façade and glass were blown into the street and river, injuring a construction crew working on Scioto Boulevard- now Civic Center Drive. The force of the blast expanded up through the building and up through elevator shafts, throwing elevator doors into hallways and piling plaster and broken marble a foot deep all the way up to the 10th floor.

George Rose, a concrete finisher, described the scene inside:

“I was one of eight men working in a room on the main floor, near the center of the building. Three minutes before the explosion occurred, I left the room. While at the other end of the building, I heard a sudden explosion, which came without warning. The walls of the building began to collapse, and I thought I would surely be buried under falling concrete. I ran, horrified, toward the end of the building, almost choked with dust, and wondered if I would get out alive.
I ran back down the corridor and found the room in which I had been working blown off the face of the earth.”

All available police and fire units were called to the scene, and were soon pulling the injured and dead from the wreckage. Rose survived, but others did not. 53 people were injured and 10 people were ultimately killed, many of which were Depression migrants drawn to the city for work.

By Friday, rumors were running rampant throughout the city of the possible cause. Initial thoughts that the explosion had been the result of a gas rupture from ongoing construction activities quickly gave way to the theory that it had not been an accident at all. Evidence, much of which was circumstantial, piled up in support of terrorism.

In the days leading up to the disaster, 300 pounds of dynamite had been stolen from a storehouse at the Hercules company, a subsidiary of Dupont, in London, Madison County. It was thought that the theft was connected to a sabotage plot related to the aforementioned labor issues. An infamous national labor protester and dynamite expert was thought to be involved in the plot, as it was reported that he had been in the Columbus area in the days leading up the disaster. The quantity of stolen dynamite had been more than enough to cause the level of destruction seen in the building, which was thought to be equivalent to a minimum of 100 pounds of TNT.

Additional evidence of sabotage came from surviving witnesses, as they reported a “sickeningly sweet odor” that permeated the air after the explosion, a common smell with nitroglycerin. Furthermore, at least 3 people observed a suspicious man running from the north side of the building immediately after the explosion. At first, the witnesses assumed he was running from the explosion itself, but as they watched, he approached a car parked nearby and began yanking the partially downed driver’s side window back and forth violently until it shattered. He then unlocked the door, jumped inside, quickly got the car running and drove away in a hurry. Still other witnesses claimed to have seen at least two suspicious men in the vicinity of the building and hurrying away around the time of the explosion. One of them was later identified by a witness as the labor agitator and explosives expert. The witness reportedly overheard a conversation of the two men right after the event that included this bit:

“Well, they did a pretty neat job of it, didn’t they?”
“Just like I told them to!”

When a large group of architects, engineers, civic leaders, criminal investigators and secret service agents walked through the building on Friday morning, they too argued that the evidence seemed to point away from a gas or dust ignition. Governor George White stated that if the explosion had been caused by a buildup of sewer gas, the manhole covers along the boulevard would’ve blown off. Inspection of a gas line that had been installed the day before found no damage to the pipe.

New Theories, More Confusion

By Saturday, however, the tone of the debate began to rapidly change. Experts from Dupont surveyed the damage and quickly ruled out high explosives. Their reasoning was that if the explosion had been caused by dynamite or nitroglycerin, windows would have been shattered a block away and the source point would’ve been more defined, with most debris blown out instead of being left behind. Additionally, they postured that the sub-basement- where the explosion supposedly occurred- would’ve had its supporting columns fractured, but they were instead relatively unscathed. Left with no conspiracy and no explanation, officials returned to the gas leak theory, but could still not explain how a buildup of gas had both entered the building and gone undetected by workers prior to ignition.

One of the last victims to succumb to their injuries, Theodore Neb, was a superintendent for a construction company working on the building. Before his death at Grant Hospital on Saturday night, he gave an interview in which he stated that he had been directly above the site of the sub-basement explosion. He theorized that a group of small holes that had been drilled into the basement floor in order to install a door had allowed gas to seep into the space under the building. Another theory was that rising water in the Scioto had somehow forced methane gas into the sub-basement.

Either way, it was expected that clearing the basement of debris would reveal hidden clues to the causes, but disagreements on responsibility would hold up the start of cleanup for weeks. On Sunday, April 17th , the state attorney general was authorized to begin an official probe into the cause of the disaster, as well as to determine what party or parties might be on the hook for the estimated $1 million (about $30 million today) in damage.

On April 27th, however, the sabotage theory reared up again as a pair of men, Edward Wallace and Frank Wilson, were apprehended in Chicago. Both men lived in Columbus and were wanted there on charges of vehicle theft. When they were interviewed, Wallace allegedly immediately said, “We know what you want. You want to question us about the blowing up of the state building in Columbus,” later saying they had been in town on the day of the explosion, but saying they knew nothing about it.

Detectives examined the stolen car they were caught in, and found that it contained, among other things, dynamite and welding tools. When questioned further, Wallace admitted that he had been working in the basement of the Ohio Departments of State building the day before the explosion as part of a construction crew that had installed the sewer system beneath the building. By the time Columbus detectives began the extradition trip back to Columbus, the two men had further admitted to blowing up safes in a Grove City post office, heightening suspicions that they had been involved in a possible bombing of the state building.

Three days later, however, both Wilson and Wallace had largely been eliminated by giving the alibi that they had been attending a baseball game at Neil Park on the day of the explosion, and investigators seemed satisfied with that explanation. At this point, state and local investigators admitted to being “baffled” as to the cause of the explosion, and concluded that they would have to wait for more evidence to be revealed when the building was cleared of debris.

Cleanup of the building finally commenced on May 9th, beginning on the top floor and gradually progressing downward. This meant that the sub-basement, where it was assumed the most crucial clues to the explosion were located, would be very last. Since practically the entire south part of the building had to be reconstructed, it was estimated that the building wouldn’t be ready to open again for up to six months.

Official Cause

After all the terrorism suspicion, witness interviews and theories tossed about, the final cause of the explosion turned out to be pretty mundane after all: gas.
On June 13th, almost 2 months to the day after the disaster and weeks of investigations, Attorney General Gilbert Bettman reported that the official cause was an accidental buildup of gas related to a leaking main of the Columbus Gas & Fuel Company. Despite rather unceremoniously dumping most of the established claims and evidence gathered prior to the report, the announcement was not entirely unexpected, as a break had been found in the line that ran along the west side of the building.

Investigators looking into the incident on behalf of CG&C had reported the break right after the explosion but disputed that the line was the cause of the blast. Their reasoning was that the explosion itself caused the hole when debris had hit it and not the other way around. It was curious logic, but reasoning they claimed was supported by the fact that there had been no fire with the explosion, a typical consequence of a gas rupture. CG&C’s reasoning was likely attempting to shift blame away from themselves, as the state was already drawing up a suit against the company to collect damages. Ohio was hardly flush with cash during the height of the Great Depression, and needed a way to pay for the reconstruction of the building.

The final, unanimous report was submitted on June 28th. It confirmed that the explosion was caused by “gas accumulating under the lower part of the structure” and that the investigators “found no crater or other evidence of high explosives.” The report reiterated that much of the damage was not structural, as it would have been had there been TNT or some other explosive substance used. The gas main itself had been improperly installed with a lack of a required double-pipe structure in case of leaks. The Columbus Gas & Fuel Company was accused of negligence. The report further stated that if the sub-basement, which only extended to the center of the building, had continued under the entire structure, the damage and casualties would’ve been far more disastrous.

Subsequently, CG&C was sued by Ohio and at least 7 surviving victims, of which most were settled.

The building’s reconstruction ended in early March 1933, and state departments began moving in a few weeks later.

The Mid-Ohio Regional Planning Commission (MORPC) has issued an Air Quality Alert for today, Wednesday, July 30, warning that ozone pollution levels are expected to reach “Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups” in parts of Central Ohio, including Franklin, Delaware, Licking, and Fairfield counties.

Basically, that means the air could be rough on the lungs, especially for kids, older adults, and anyone with asthma or other respiratory conditions. The Air Quality Index (AQI) is expected to hit 101, and anything over 100 isn’t great news for folks with health concerns.

So, what’s causing the funk in the air?

A perfect mix of weather conditions: calm morning winds, a temperature inversion trapping pollutants close to the ground, and highs in the low 90s with lots of sunshine. Basically, the atmosphere is cooking up some extra ground-level ozone.

If you’re in a sensitive group, MORPC recommends limiting prolonged outdoor activity or sticking to the early morning hours when ozone levels are lower. And if you’ve been feeling a little wheezy or short of breath, it’s probably a good idea to check in with your doctor.

So what can you personally do to help clear the air?

Obviously, no one person can tackle the larger factors that contribute to poor air quality in general, but that doesn’t mean that we can’t take steps to lessen our own impacts during the alert tomorrow.

You can sign up for Air Quality Alert notifications here, and find commute options to reduce your emissions at Gohio Commute.
