The Gunflint’s  Banadad Trail Association, friends and neighbors this spring are planting six hundred red Tree Planting along the Banadad and white pines and 100 white spruce trees in previously logged and “blow-down” areas along the eastern end of the Banadad Ski Trail and around Little Ollie Lake. Some 350 trees went into the ground over this past weekend. The remaining trees are planned to be planted during this week by local members of the Association, guests and staff at Poplar Creek Guesthouse B&B. As in previous years, the tree planting is a way for the Banadad Trail Association to insure that the maintenance and grooming of the trail remains carbon neutral. Similarly Poplar Creek Guesthosue B&B, in joining with the Association in this project, is seeking to sequester the carbon produced by the use of its vehicles in these new tree

This weekend project was injunction with the Gunflint annual Green-Up.. The year’s event attracted some two hundred participants who in addition to the tree planting along the Banadad began clearing the underbrush, called –releasing’” around trees previously planted during the event in past years. ]]> http://www.minnesotabedandbreakfasts.org/blog/2010/05/tree-planting-on-the-gunflint/feed/ 0 http://www.minnesotabedandbreakfasts.org/blog/2006/09/dreamed-of-operating-your-own-bed-and-breakfast-inn/ http://www.minnesotabedandbreakfasts.org/blog/2006/09/dreamed-of-operating-your-own-bed-and-breakfast-inn/#comments Fri, 29 Sep 2006 13:50:37 +0000 admin http://elwha2.insideout.com/minnesotabedandbreakfasts.org/blog/?p=690 Register Now to Attend Beginner and Refresher Innkeeper Workshops in Minnesota.
