Scout food drive this Saturday

The St Joseph Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts are conducting their annual food drive. Pick up of non-perishable food items will start Saturday, Oct 5. Please place food bags on your front porch by 9 a.m.

 

St. John’s Abbey to auction firewood

St. John’s Abbey will be selling about 130 cords of hardwood firewood by sealed bid auction. The wood has already been cut and skidded into 16 different piles ranging from 5-12 cords per pile. All the piles are on accessible roads. The wood still needs to be cut into firewood lengths, split and hauled. It was cut between January 2012 and March 2013. The wood is mostly oak and maple occasionally mixed with other species. The wood was generated as part of the abbey’s long-term forest management program to provide renewable wood products and assure forest regeneration and wildlife habitat.

Bidders can bid on as many piles as they want and each pile will be sold separately to the highest bidder for the pile. Bidders who end up with the high bid for more piles than they actually need can pick those piles they want and the piles they don’t want will be given to the next highest bidder. All wood is sold as appraised or “as is” and no adjustments for species mix or volume will be made after the sale.

Pictures of the piles, location maps and bid forms can be found at www.csbsju.edu/arboretum. Bidders may also examine the piles. Roads will be open for viewing from noon-4 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 5. St. John’s Abbey Forestry staff will be available during normal work hours; call to assure gates are unlocked. Bids are due by noon on Monday, Oct. 14.

For more information, contact Thomas Kroll, abbey forester, at 320-363-3126.
