Thanks to a generous grant from Wal Mart, the idea of the Living Prairie Courtyard project will get underway soon.

Dirt is hauled in and Roundup is sprayed on the grass to prepare the site.

DECEMBER 1999

Thanks to a another generous grant, from the North Dakota Game and Fish Department, we will be able to complete our Living Prairie Courtyard project.

We completed the fence to enclose the courtyard before the first snowfall. It was decorated for the Christmas season.

All we can do now is plan, prepare, and dream about planting in the Spring.
