Iron Range Earth Fest - April 17 & 18, 2009


Activities will be held throughout the weekend at:
» Mt Iron Community Center
» Messiah Lutheran Church
» Mesabi Family YMCA
» Mt Iron Merritt Elementary School

The Iron Range Earth Fest will feature Iron Range food, skills, interests, and traditions – local food, local skills, local connection with wilderness, local music, and children’s activities, as well as offerings from local businesses, state, environmental, and public interest groups. People in our area still practice inherited traditions of hunting, fishing, trapping, gardening, quilting, weaving, canning, composting, furniture making and many other skills which make life sustainable. At the same time, cities, power companies and businesses in our area are developing new energy-saving and job-creating technology. All of these, along with agencies and programs for protecting our land and air and water, have a place and a voice at the first Iron Range Earth Fest.
