Learning Is for Everyone
At Eco3, we talk a lot about building equitable, sustainable communities. What that actually looks like in practice is people, neighbors, volunteers, students, retirees, and people of all ages coming together to learn, grow, and build a welcoming and inclusive community for all ages. That idea is at the heart of something bigger happening right here in Duluth.
Sowing Seeds and Smiles: Spring at the Urban Farm
Spring at the Eco3 Urban Farm is a busy time of year. Each week brings more time spent on the farm and new tasks to help us launch into the growing season. The last few weeks, we have spent time on projects such as pruning our perennial fruit bushes, making progress on infrastructure improvements, and the always delightful task of weed management.
Winter Around the Urban Farm
While the farm fields rest during the winter months, our farm crew has stayed busy, preparing for the upcoming growing season. Winter is a critical time for maintaining infrastructure and planning for the upcoming season, and we have been busy building shelves, buying seeds, and completing critical steps to ensure our farm blossoms this growing season.
Ending the 2025 Season at the Eco3 Urban Farm
Fall marks the end of another great season at the Eco3 Urban Farm. As the team works to clear fields, compost the last remnants of produce in the ground, and tend to tools before frost settles in and snow follows, we can now appreciate everything the farm crew accomplished this summer.
Solving a Thorny Problem
This fall, with the help of volunteers, the Ecolibrium3 Urban Farm team took steps to address the thorny problem of invasive buckthorn on the farm. Common Buckthorn and Glossy Buckthorn are two plants not native to Northern Minnesota that have traits that allow them to take over ecosystems if left unchecked.
Sharing Abundance at the Summer Sampler
The Eco3 Farm Summer Sampler was held on August 23rd at the Eco3 Urban Farm. This was the farm’s biggest event of the season, an opportunity to invite community members to witness the abundance of the farm.
