This is the page for the Stevens County, MN Scandia Woods Environmental Learning Lab, fondly known as SWELL. Hours by appointment only.

The idea of SWELL began in 1995 with a group of teachers from the Morris Area and Cyrus School Districts. The original grant was throught the Humphrey Institute School of Change. Through the years, grants, 4-H groups, scout troops, youth serve and other service learning projects have enabled the creation of a very inclusive facility that is flexible to the needs of the audience using it.
