This is a golden opportunity that rarely presents it self. Lets figure out a way to use the collaboration of all of the interested partners to preserve this forever and use it in a sustainable manner.

The work done by organizations like this, particularly as seen with the investment and training that comes out of this farm, is so, so important on many levels for community engagement and change systems. What a life-breathing idea.

This is a great project. Minnesota Food Association is an outstanding organization and is the right group to protect this land and provide education and opportunities for people to enjoy and use it. I support the use of public funding for this project!

I support this acquisition for the benefit of so many, and am pledging financial support for MFA's effort to make this happen. This kind of opportunity does not come along often.

Please keep this forest from development. It is a beautiful space that must remain as it is for the people of this area.

I work here and believe that the Minnesota Food Association is the best possible steward for this land.

In the late 1980s, I conducted part of research for my master's degree in agricultural and extension education at Wilder Forest, spending several months there. The diverse habitat that the Forest encompasses and the facilities that are available for learning on the Forest property are truly remarkable. I was impressed in the 1980s and still am today. This is a true gem of a resource that has been well utilized for benefit of our broader environment as well as the people of Minnesota.

This is a vital habitat that likely took hundreds of years to develop. We need to maintain these portions of forest, for if not, we lose out on the vital ecosystem services they provide and will not be able to regain over several lifetimes.

This is a no-brainer for people, who believe in the potential of a habitable future for the earth and the living creatures we are rapidly driving out of existence. Between people who don't care, a majority, and people who are glad to profit off the destruction of open space and natural resources, a healthy minority, we have a real struggle on our hands.
