Happy Earth Day! Despite all the challenges our planet faces, we take hope in the fact that there are so many advocates fighting for a healthy Earth. We are grateful for each and every one of you.

It's the only planet we've got, and we're all on it together. 🌎

For Volunteer Appreciation Week, we're highlighting our Adopt a Creek program. Now with more sections of various lengths, this program allows you to choose a section of Nine Mile Creek to clean trash out of. It also shows you which sections have been claimed and which are still available. 

You can visit your section on your own time; we also have equipment you can borrow, like work gloves and trash grabbers.

Find out more at https://www.ninemilecreek.org/adopt-a-creek/

"Spring is finally here in Minnesota. Dark nights are giving way to longer days and slushy snowscapes yield to grounds budded with green. And with it comes the urge to get out in the garden. But wait! Hold off on the yard cleanup just yet. Many pollinators are still overwintering in last year’s plant material. As we gear up for the growing season, we talked with several Blue Thumb partners about the when and how of pollinator-friendly spring yard care." - read more at https://bluethumb.org/pollinator-friendly-spring-gardening/

Join us for the FINAL Stem on Tap of the season- this month the topic is-
Drinking Water Sources, Treatment + Conservation

Rick Wahlen, Utilities Operations Manager, City of Eden Prairie
Joe Dusek, Water Treatment Plant Supervisor, City of Eden Prairie
Wednesday, April 15th, 4:30-6:30pm | Eden Prairie Water Treatment Plant

Not all drinking water sources are equal, and neither are treatment systems. Some are very simple and basic, while others are extraordinarily complex. You will  have an opportunity to tour the plant and observe the robust treatment process as we learn how Eden Prairie protects the quantity and quality of its deep well drinking water. 

Since this month’s event will take place at a working, industrial facility, the “Tap” in “STEM on Tap” this month is the drinking water tap! No alcohol is allowed.
