Where Have All The Flowers Gone?!
Speaker: Bonnie Harper-LoreA song written by Pete Seeger in 1955, was recorded by The Kingston Trio, Peter, Paul and Mary, Joan Baez and so many others. In 2010, the New Statesman listed it as one of the Top 20 Political Songs. (Wiki) This was a thought on our minds in the 1970’s when Minnesota’s wildflower movement was in motion! Although no one intended to become political over it, that happened too. A lot has happened both in Minnesota and the Midwest to protect and restore native wildflowers since then. Bonnie will present a timeline filled with photos and sidebars of what she has seen happen. Lots of Minnesotans have worked hard and long to establish us as one of the leaders in the Country.
