Who We Are
Peter recently retired as a scientist and engineer who served over 38 years at 3M Company. He holds multiple patents and has over 30 years of project management experience in a wide variety of products and divisions. His goal for this third chapter of life is to spend as much time with family and nature as possible. His insatiable curiosity and affinity for all things nature began in Northern Minnesota. His respect and care for nature emerged from the crucible of the environmental and ecological movements that started in the early 1970’s. He strongly believes in leaving a space in better condition than he found it; this belief led him to restore prairie, which ultimately led him to The Prairie Enthusiasts! As he begins reclaiming the three-acres that he acquired shortly before retiring, he’s excited to expand his knowledge and provide assistance to the long-term preservation and maintenance of prairie environments. He’s very happy to be a part of The Prairie Enthusiasts.
