One Last Trip to the Cabin? Donate the Leftover Groceries!

If this weekend is your last trip to the cabin up nort' before closing it up for the year, you'll likely have leftover groceries. Leaving them in the cabin risks an ant (or bear!) invasion, and throwing perfectly good groceries away is wasteful.

Here's an idea: donate leftover groceries to a local food shelf!

Food Shelf hours vary, and this particular one doesn't reopen until Tuesday. So if you have friends or neighbors in the area, drop it off with them to donate later.

Custom-Built Modern Farmhouse Listing In Minnesota Will Blow Your Mind

The Northland has its fair of terrific homes that hit the market. They could be properties rich in history, lakefront properties, homes that offer tremendous views, the list goes on and on.

However, a 2015 custom-built modern farmhouse that recently went on the market in Cloquet may be the most stand-out home you'll see, but not just because of how it looks from the outside.

The 5,461-square-foot home sits on a 9-acre lot with 4 bedrooms and 3 baths and you'll likely do a double take when you drive by and want to look inside.

That would be a good idea because once you open the silo door there are a lot of cool things inside, including:

A show-stopping epoxy floor that encompasses over 8000 pennies
An expansive great room that boasts a wall of windows, allowing an unbelievable amount of natural light to flood this room
A chef-inspired kitchen featuring a hand-hammered copper farmhouse sink, slate tile floors, custom lighting, an island with storage, concrete countertops, custom cabinetry, and built-ins.
A primary bedroom with a very cool, industrial farmhouse-inspired bathroom with a jetted tub and separate shower. It also has access to a private patio.
A unique space on the third floor of the silo could make a perfect art studio, office, music room, or library.
A heated 36x28 3-car attached garage
Custom staircases, ailings, and throughout
A heated 36x28 3-car attached garage

Those are just a few highlights, you see it all for yourself below. The home, located at 4213 Van Gassler Road in Cloquet, went on the market in August for $899,900.
