Our crews are collecting Paul Bunyans this summer!

The first pictured is in Akeley, MN, and the second is in Jenkins, MN. By the end of our field season, we just might visit them all!

Northern Bedrock Historic Preservation Corps crews take on the tedious work! Here they are going over a foot stone at Lakeview Palmers Cemetery with toothbrushes to carefully remove algae and lichen buildup.

Have you ever wondered what our crews do in the field? Join us for a Day in the Life of a Northern Bedrock Corpsmember at Lakeview Palmers Cemetery June 18th from 10 am - 2 pm! We will demonstrate skills in cemetery preservation, split rail fence construction, and a variety of building restoration skills. Feel free to drop in for a portion of the day, or stay for the whole event! Light refreshments will be provided.
