Happy Summer

Happy Summer to all.  We have been making progress with our garden project.  We have a watering crew lined up for May to keep our plants alive until we can plant.  Someday soon the weather will cooperate.  We are working with IRE (Iron Range Engineering) on some pond and stream hopes and dreams.  We are also consulting with Boreal Natives which is a division of  Prairie Restorations to decide appropriate plantings around the pond.  The biggest news is that we will  be starting construction on a sitting area in June for relaxation and learning thanks to some funding through a Spring 2014 Innovative Grant from the Mesabi Range College Foundation.   This will be a work in progress for a long time. Suggestions, money, labor, and donations are always welcome. I will post work dates here through the summer.  I think you can subscribe to the blog so that you will get an e-mail when we post updates.
