Latch OnA Latch On event is one that includes all breastfeeding families (and community members), inviting them to celebrate the natural beauty of breastfeeding as a beneficial bonding experience. View the video below for a glimpse at what a Latch On event looks like. Two local Minnesota events include; Woodbury Friday at 4:30pm (info here) and Saint Cloud Saturday August 5th at 10am (info here). Other global events can be found ((here)).
