DIY-DIB: Do it yourself. Do it better.
It's the 10th season of BAELN, the Brainerd Area Environmental Learning Network, and we thought it would be fun to highlight what all of us can do, and do better, to make the environment and our communities vibrant places to live, work and play. The events are free and all are invited, so mark your calendars for a season that's sure to keep you coming back.
Season 10's events include:
June 20: Buying and cooking healthy, local foods
The Brainerd Area Environmental Learning Network (BAELN) offers environmental professionals and community members free professional development and timely information on environmental and sustainability issues.
BAELN events are usually held on the third Thursday of the month from 3:00-4:30 p.m. Events include a 40 minute presentation, followed by questions and discussion with plenty of time for networking and refreshments.
BAELN is a collaborative effort of: Central Lakes College, Central Regional Sustainable Development Partnership, Crow Wing Soil and Water Conservation District, Envision Minnesota, Initiative Foundation, MN Department of Natural Resources, MN Department of Transportation, MN Pollution Control Agency, The Nature Conservancy, and University of Minnesota Extension.
