From tending to our seedlings sprouting inside the Tamales y Bicicletas greenhouse to finalizing a novel ownership model draft, EPNI has been hard at work preparing for this summer. We’re sowing new seeds every week and asking for your support to help them take root.

With incredible partners, including Tree Trust, Red Lake Nation and the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum, we've started to map what and how to plant on the land surrounding the warehouse - starting as early as next month.

We're $5,000 away from reaching our goal of $10,000 by the end of today. Your donation will help us buy essentials like a solar-powered water pump and wheelbarrow, so we can spend next month planting trees, pollinators, and more on the Roof Depot site.

When you chip in, your donation builds out this plan and gets seedlings in the ground. So if you can spare $10, $50, or any amount that works for you, every dollar matters.

Thank you so much for your continued support. We’ll be sure to invite you when we start planting!

If you would like to donate by check, please address it accordingly:
