Things to do Life at Zephyr revolves around our community center where we have meals once a week and on holidays, parties, and meetings. Also we have a spring fed swimming pond, another pond where we ice-skate, a soccer/baseball field, trails for walking and skiing, and barns for animals and storage. There are 176 acres of woodlands, 81 acres of goat prairies and ---- acres of restored wetlands, plus many acres of pastures, high grass meadows, ponds, creeks and a trout stream. A wild spaces policy governs the use of these areas. Zephyr is an active participant in various Federal & State conservation programs. Winona has a rich cultural life for such a small town, largely because of the presence of two universities: Winona State & St. Mary’s.

Earning a Living You should have a clear idea of how to support yourself before moving here. Opportunities are much more limited than in a major metropolitan area. Most of us earn our livings in nearby communities. Winona, MN (population 30,000) is 15 miles away, La Crosse, WI (pop. 75,900 ) 30 miles and Rochester, MN (pop. 93,300) 50 miles away. Occupations of members
include school administrator, information systems, community organizer,
forester, gardener, bookkeeper, massage
therapist, and artist. |
