Employee-Powered Idea Blooms at ECE
Grass near the pond at East Central Energy (ECE) Headquarters in Braham will soon turn from emerald green to brown. After months of research and planning, ECE has teamed up with MN Native Landscapes of Otsego, MN, to transform roughly two and a half acres of turf grass into pollinator habitat. Another habitat is planned near the Superior Operations Center.

There's been a lot of buzz about the birds and the bees at ECE recently as we embark on a dedicated effort to power our pollinators. Follow our blog for more information and updates on our pollinator habitat project.
