New owners keep business growing

Congratulations to Austin Philipp and Anna Mundahl, the new owners of Janzen’s Greenhouse in Fairmont. Congratulations are also in order for long-time owners Jon and LaNette Janzen, who ran the successful and beloved greenhouse for decades.

Second joint work session held

At a joint work session discussing the community center this week, the idea to add a day care in the facility was brought up and talked about for at least an hour. We need to move forward with this project without adding a daycare as council is past the of point of redesigning the facility. As was said during Tuesday’s meeting, more community support is needed to help finish up the daycare space at Lakeview, which will add an additional 100 child care spots.
