Rooted at the Edge: An Evening with Local Author Donna Erickson

Feb 25, 2026 6-8pm

Join us for an evening of storytelling, history, and community at LaLonde Ranch, the historic site that is now home to Farm Connect Montana. This event will feature a reading from local author Donna Erickson’s book Rooted at the Edge, which explores land conservation, place-based history, and our evolving relationship with urban and rural development.

The evening will highlight the past and present of LaLonde Ranch, connecting Donna’s work with the site’s history. Guests can view historic photos, learn about the ranch’s role then and now, and see how it continues to serve the community through Farm Connect's work.

This gathering is an opportunity to connect with local history and experience a historic ranch as a living, evolving community space. We hope you can join us!
