Strengthening our community by bridging relationships of understanding & communication in Brown County.
Who We Are
“Many of us think of our community as only the town in which we live. But we also belong to a larger rural community: the community formed by all residents of Brown County. We are a neighborhood of communities that share common challenges and opportunities.” ~Catherine Rasmussen, University of Minnesota Extension Educator.
Bridging Brown County is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization formed in 1999 and incorporated in 2003. The organization is composed of citizens of Brown County, Minnesota. We meet to discuss ideas and to develop greater awareness of community throughout our county. The Board of Directors meets monthly and interested persons are welcome to attend.
