Get ready to "spring" into action with Minnesota Sea Grant's engaging three-part webinar series. This series is designed to empower northeast Minnesota residents to explore green infrastructure and how it can help build resilient communities. Whether you’re dreaming of a summer project on your own property or curious about green infrastructure's role in bigger community landscapes, we’ve got you covered.
Join us as we dig into practical green infrastructure techniques for your home, discover the importance of native and deep-rooted perennial plants, and see how green infrastructure works in our public spaces. By the end, you'll be ready to get your hands dirty with new ideas, connect with local experts, and make your property—and community—greener and more sustainable.
