FSPA Land on St. Joseph Ridge

Volunteer With Us

Our land on St. Joseph Ridge (W2658 WI-33, La Crosse, WI 54601), serves as an educational model in the community. As future stewards of the earth, local students and volunteers help to work the garden. FSPA's agricultural internship program bolsters the students' undergraduate studies for biology and sustainable management majors as well. To volunteer, email land@fspa.org or visit our UGetConnected page.
