SUMMARY:MINNESOTA DRIFTLESS: FOURTH ANNUAL HAY CREEK HILLS FARM TOUR
DESCRIPTION:Fourth Annual Hay Creek Hills Farm Tour\nSaturday, September 19 – 1:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.\nLocation: Hay Creek Hills Farm in Red Wing, MN\n\nJoin Wendy Johnson and other prairie lovers on Saturday, September 19, for the Hay Creek Hills 4th Annual Farm Tour + More! You’ll enjoy beautiful restored and remnant prairies, delicious food, and fun music as we celebrate Mother Nature and the community supporting her.\nThe farm is on 100 acres just south of Red Wing, Minnesota. The farm includes portions enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program and the Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program, and an Environmental Quality Incentives Program project that consists of a dry bluff prairie and oak savanna restoration.\nWendy began annual farm tours in 2023, and every year she’s added a little something different for guests. This year, Wendy’s adding seed collecting and vendor/organization tabling.\nTwo special guests will lead groups into the reconstructed prairie (planted in spring 2024) where you’ll learn about seed collection techniques, species, and prairie ecology: Karin Jokela with the Xerces Society and Alex Bouthilet from the St. Croix Valley Prairie Enthusiasts Chapter.\nThere will also be a handful of Red Wing makers of art and jams for sale and a tent with information from local conservation organizations.\nWendy’s crew will shoot the day’s events for her documentary film, Healing Ground: A Story of Restoration, but they will honor anyone’s desire not to be on camera.\nThe planned schedule is as follows. Come for any activity or stay all day:\n\n1:00-3:00 p.m. – Seed Collecting\n3:00-5:00 p.m. – Farm Tour\n5:00 p.m. – Potluck begins\n6:00-8:00 p.m. – Old Tyme Music Jamboree (bring your fiddle, guitar, uke, banjo, spoons, drum, cello, flute, or voice, to make a joyful sound!)\n\nIt’s a public event, so you’re welcome to share the event information with your friends and family and other conservation organizations as well!\nCONTACT:\nPlease RSVP to Wendy (wendyjohnson2016@gmail.com ( mailto:wendyjohnson2016@gmail.com )) so she knows how many people to expect. Wendy will also contact people if the weather causes problems with the event.\nLOCATION:\nNext to 30817 Hay Creek Hills Dr., Red Wing, MN. Look for event signs when you get close. MAP HERE\n \n\n
