Creating a More Sustainable Western MN Feb. 27 in Alexandria

February 17th, 2012

Hope folks will be interested…

How can we work together to create a more sustainable western Minnesota where communities maintain control over their own futures? That question will be discussed at a special Land Stewardship Project (LSP) meeting on Monday, Feb 27, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., at theFirst Congregational United Church of Christ in Alexandria (221 7th Ave W.). Admission is free for this public event, but spots must be reserved by contacting LSP’s Tom Taylor at 320-269-2105 or ttaylor@landstewardshipproject.org.

After a free-will donation meal, LSP staff will involve citizens in a discussion of ways to revitalize our communities economically and environmentally, while keeping control in local hands. Presentations and discussions will focus on:

  • LSP’s current efforts to build a local foods economy in western Minnesota and what people can do to help advance this important work.
  • What is the Chippewa 10% Project all about? LSP, partners, farmers and food and fuel buyers are working in the Chippewa River watershed to improve farm profits and stewardship.
  • What is LSP’s Farm Beginnings program doing to help the next generation of farmers succeed in western Minnesota?
  • What is LSP doing to create a health care system that is more affordable and sustainable? Come hear about the Federal Affordable Care Act and what we can do to make certain Minnesota’s Health Care Exchange works for the people of Minnesota, not insurance company executives.

LSP is a grassroots, membership-based organization working for economic justice, environmental stewardship, vibrant rural communities, and a healthy and accessible food system that profits farmers and supplies nutritious food to all people. 

We look forward to seeing you there and please remember to RSVP so we can better plan for the meeting and the dinner.
