COVID-19 has changed the plans of the Lake Superior Stewardship Initiative, Keweenaw Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, and Keweenaw Land Trust. Initially envisioned as a collaboration for last year, Joan Chadde says that instead, a series of minigrants have been awarded to several area schools and organizations. Eleven groups received $75 each for a range of projects.
Chadde goes through some of the initiatives.
Chadde says that gardening is a popular learning tool in the Keweenaw because of the well-rounded education it provides.
Some pictures of students at Baraga Elementary and E. B. Holman School are below along with a list of all of the winning organizations.
