North Minneapolis St Paul Twin Cities Metro Area Real Estate

Minnesota GreenStar Certification

In an effort to address the demand for more eco-friendly homes in Minnesota, a new innovative program of certification and standards has been established.  It is the Minnesota GreenStar program - look for the this logo when touring new homes.

Did you know that new home construction consumes approximately 20% of our raw materials and primary energy?  The pollution generated by today's methods generates 1/5 of our nation's total output of climate changing pollutants.

Beginning with the design process, this system of project verification and certification assures the key components of green techniques and materials through to the final construction.  The emphasis on five key components of "green" building systems assures a whole-systems approach:

• Water Conservation
• Indoor Environmental Quality
• Energy Efficiency
• Resource Efficiency (including Durability)
• Site and Community

To find out more or download a brochure, visit the Minnesota GreenStar Certification website at:  Minnesota GreenStar  or email them at: info@mngreenstar.org

Well, yes - there could be black bears in Oak Grove MN, especially in the spring.  They are extremely fond of bird feeders, but are usually gone by mid-July or so.  Since most of the long time residents of the area would like to avoid the need for a legal bear hunt, here are some tips that will help keep the bears away:

1. Never, never, never, feed the bears.
2. Compost your vegetable scraps.
3. Put meat scraps in your freezer until garbage pickup day, then put them in a tightly sealed containerand place in the garbage receptical.
4. Rinse out food cans and wrappers to reduce the smell of food in the garbage or recycling.
5. Keep your pets' food inside.
6. Clean your barbeque grills and picnic tables after each use.
7. Wash your garbage cans and use lime to reduce odors.
8. Keep garbage cans in a bear-proof container.
9. Take you bird feeders down in the spring.  During the summer, take the feeders indoors at night.  Remember this includes seed feeders, suet, and hummingbird feeders too.
10. Use an electric fence to keep bears away from your beehives, fruit trees, berry patches, and gardens, especially if you grow sweet corn.
11. Sometimes, noisemakers, bright lights, or barking dogs will discourage bears.

If you encounter a bear on the ground...

1. Don't panic (I know, easier said than done).  Don't attempt to shoot or approach a bear.
2. Learn to be tolerant.  Just because you see a bear, doesn't mean it wants to cause trouble.
3. Most bears fear people and will leave when they see you.  If you get too close, the bear may make wooffing sounds, slap the ground or underbrush, snap its jaws, or bluff charge.
4. Slowly back away.
5. Go inside and wait.  The bear will most likely leave.
6. Don't corner a bear; always allow the bear an escape route.
7. Throw something or make loud noises to scare the bear away.

If you see a bear in a tree...

1. Leave it alone!  The bear will leave when it feels it is safe to do so.
2. Make sure everyone leaves the area.
3. Take your dog indoors.

The state DNR does not remove bears for damaging property, tearing down bird feeders, or tipping over garbage cans because relocated bears generally return to the same area where they were captured.
