Thanks to a generous grant from the Rasmuson Foundation, the Clausen Cabin is sporting a brand-new ventilation system, installed by Ventilation Solutions, LLC. Since the upgrades to the Clausen Cabin of a few years ago, the building is super tight – thus the new ventilation system will allow fresh, heated air during the winter months, as well as clean air during the pollen and fire (smoke) season of spring/summer. Additionally, respiratory borne pathogens will be kept at bay, allowing for a safer environment.
Again, thanks to Ventilation Solutions LLC and especially the Rasmuson Foundation for their generous contribution to our library!
Come join us to add new seeds to the GEB seed catalog or to order seeds for your own garden.

Please see the attached flyer for all the details. See you at the Eagle!!
