Spring Grove Heritage Home

5/30/2019

0 Comments

 
​On Friday, May 17, we were thrilled to break ground on our Spring Grove Heritage House. This is already a special home for Habitat for Humanity La Crosse Area for several reasons. 
Picture
The Heritage Home is Habitat La Crosse’s 50th home. That means it will house one of 50 families that has been able to build strength, stability and self-reliance through homeownership. This house will become our first built in Spring Grove, MN. This is an opportunity to extend our service into rural communities, areas hugely affected by the affordable housing shortage but often overlooked in conversations surrounding the issue.
​
It is not just the final product that will be full of firsts for Habitat for Humanity La Crosse Area. The planning of the Spring Grove Heritage House has been a whole new process. Habitat La Crosse started this process after a high school class in Spring Grove was asked what their community needs most and they responded with a need for affordable housing. This class then helped to design the architectural plans for the home.  Then architect Miranda Moen helped put the students’ ideas into a buildable blue print. 
Picture
Habitat La Crosse and Spring Grove are building on this theme of involving the entire community in the Heritage Home. The Spring Grove community has come together in exciting ways to build support for this project. Community members have raised funds and generated excitement. This was clear in the large attendance for the ground breaking ceremony, despite poor weather. We can’t wait to see what else this community will do to support this home.
