Hibbing Beautification Project

The Hibbing > We're Ore and More brand team is looking for volunteers to assist in planting trees and shrubs along the south side of the Mesabi Trail at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday, September 29th.

The Hibbing Brand Team, the City of Hibbing and Northern Landscapes are partnering to create an attractive visual entrance into Hibbing along the Mesabi Trial. Research has found that the Mesabi Trail is one of Hibbing's powerful outdoor assets fro both residents and tourists.

The beautification project will consist of two phases. On Tuesday, volunteers will focus on phase one: planting trees and shrubs along that portion of the Mesabi Trail which urns along the northwest corner of the Industrial Park. In the spring, phase two will include planting ornamental shrubs at the trail intersection by the Greyhound Bus Museum and installing a bench and welcome sign.

Please bring you own shovel, gardening gloves and friends. The planting holed will be pre-dug, the soil transported, and the trees and shrubs made available for planting.

To learn more about Hibbing's strategic marketing platform attend one of the Branding Committees Presentations: Hibbing > We're Ore and More! Two presentations will occur at 2:00 PM and again at 6:00 PM in the Memorial Building Little Theater Wednesday, September 30th. Refreshments will be served.
