Over a year and a half ago, Minnesota voters approved the Clean Water, Land and Legacy Amendment and now it’s beginning to bear fruit.

The community of Winona is holding a first-of-its-kind Legacy Weekend featuring programs and events made possible by the Amendment.  Some of the events are associated with conservation and environmental funding from the Amendment, some with arts and cultural heritage funding. A full schedule of events is at the link.  Other communities are encouraged to plan Legacy Weekends.

St. Paul is also seeing results from the Amendment.  Here’s a breakdown.
