Daydreaming about summer excursions?
Along the Missouri River between St. Louis and Hermann, a restored German
settlement, is an enchanted valley blessed by
low-density land use where people grow North American grapes for
Missouri wine, groundcover in interlocking trays for green roofs,
vegetables for St. Louis locivore restaurants and native trees for
environmentally conscious landscapers. WUSTL readers will recognize many of the contributers to Missouri River Country, a book that celebrates this land and the people who have lived there. All proceeds from the book’s sales will go to land conservation.
