Hello, my name is Daniel LeTexier, a recent graduate from Toccoa Falls College with a double major in Secondary English Education and Bible & Theology. This summer I worked as an Education Apprentice from June through early August.
In partnership with Minnesota Sea Grant and the North Central Regional Aquaculture Center, (NCRAC), Spark-Y Interns developed and filmed two instructional videos relating to tilapia - a popular fish used in aquaponic systems.
In partnership with the City of Minneapolis and the Lyndale neighborhood, Spark-Y recently planted the Blaisdell Avenue South bike lane medians with over 2000 native plants. Black-eyed Susan, Fragrant Giant Hyssop, Little Bluestem, Fox Sedge, Golden Alexander, Blue Flag Irises, and Lobelia now grace what was once a bare patch, filled with weeds.
