LITTLE FALLS — A class on installing and maintaining a prairie garden will be 10 a.m.-noon June 25 at the Charles A. Weyerhaeuser Memorial Museum, 2151 Lindbergh Drive S., in Little Falls.
Instructor Ben Wood will use the museum’s garden as an example of how to care for and manage a native landscape. Established in 1977, not long after the museum was built, the prairie’s recent burn will serve as an example of routine maintenance and the ins and outs of prairie garden care.
This class is sponsored by Rethos: Places Reimagined and the Morrison County Historical Society, its central Minnesota education coordinator. The program was financed in part by the state of Minnesota from the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund through the Minnesota Historical Society and by the Franciscan Sisters of Little Falls One Planet Fund.
General admission for each class is $25. A “pay what you can” option is also available. Register at

Our newsroom occasionally reports stories under a byline of "staff." Often, the "staff" byline is used when rewriting basic news briefs that originate from official sources, such as a city press release about a road closure, and which require little or no reporting. At times, this byline is used when a news story includes numerous authors or when the story is formed by aggregating previously reported news from various sources. If outside sources are used, it is noted within the story.
Hi, I'm the Brainerd Dispatch. I started working a few days before Christmas in 1881 and became a daily paper two years later. I've gone through a lot of changes over the years, but what has never changed is my commitment to community and to local journalism. I've got an entire team of dedicated people who work night and day to make sure I go out every morning, whether in print, as an e-edition, via an app or with additional information at www.brainerddispatch.com. News, weather, sports — videos, photos, podcasts and social media — all covering stories from central Minnesota about your neighbors, your lakes, your communities, your challenges and your opportunities. It's all part of the effort to keep people connected and informed. And we couldn't do it without support.
