On April 21, the Spring Mini-Clinic was held in person for the first time at the Wisconsin Cranberry Research Station. To provide an opportunity for people to interact with their local community while also keeping travel times short, we offered live broadcasts at 3 locations (Cranmoor, Manitowish Waters, and Spooner) in addition to the in-person meeting at the research station. You can find a recap of the clinic here.
