Channel your flannel for a rollicking good time!

On Sunday, March 25, 2018, 11 am – 3 pm, celebrate the neighborhoods and urban forests of Rochester at Lumber Jack & Jill Forest Fest 2018.

Venture out to Kinney Creek Brewery (1016 7th Street NW Rochester) for an afternoon filled with flannel, beards and logging fun. There will be raffles of Minnesota experiences to bid on, Neighborhood Awards to be given out highlighting some excellent volunteers, stacks of lumber-themed activities and plaid photo ops will be throughout this woodsy event. Tickets will also be available at the door for an additional $5. Children under 12 do not need a ticket but are welcome.

Our tree-hugging sponsors Kinney Creek Brewery and The People’s Food Coop have graciously donated a lodge to gather in, drinks to wet your whistle and tasty nibbles for all. Maier Tree & Lawn have sponsored a S’more station for campfire sweet treats.

Woodsy attire and whiskers encouraged. Come and channel your inner flannel with us in your best Lumber Jack & Jill-wear.

We wood log to see you there!
