One of the biggest challenges in gardening — at least for this gardener — is remembering the names of all the plants I stick into the ground each year.
Describing something you remember from the previous growing season as a “large purple posy” or “striped red tomato” just doesn’t get it when you’re wandering among the hundreds of plant trays at your nearest nursery.

If play is the best way for young children to learn, then children involved in the Stepping Stones program can expect a head start on their education.

The center — which is expected to open this fall — will also give parents networking opportunities and the tools they need to be good parents, said Sarah McDermid, Christian education director at Trinity Lutheran Church.

Devastating, unbelievable, unforgettable — the words do not adequately describe the decade of the 1930s. It was a time when poor economic conditions combined with extreme weather that created a period of prairie history known as the Great Depression or the “Dirty Thirties.”
Immediately following World War I — when a hungry world demanded more food — North Dakota farmers joined the effort and expanded production. They joined the call to feed the people of western Europe.
Credit was easy and available. Bank regulation was light. Wheat was selling for $2.95 on Minneapolis markets.
