Join the St. Louis River Alliance and St. Louis River Area of Concern coordinators for an evening celebrating the recovery of manoomin (wild rice) in the St. Louis River Estuary. This free community event will take place Tuesday, April 7, from 5:30–7:30 p.m. at Clyde Iron Works (2920 W. Michigan St.) in Duluth.
Discover why manoomin is vital to the health of the river, what its return tells us about decades of restoration work, and what this progress means for the future of our community. Local organizations will be tabling and eager to share their projects, stories, and opportunities to get involved.
The evening will feature special guest speaker Deanna Erickson, Director of the Lake Superior National Estuarine Research Reserve, who will share insights on the importance of this sacred plant and all the St. Louis River relatives wild rice supports—including those of us living along, paddling, and ricing these waters.
Free and open to the public. Free pizza will be served.
