Employee bird house project helps us get greener

Last week, a group Thomson Reuters employees in Eagan, Minn. – including myself – got together to make the campus of the Legal headquarters a place to call home for bluebirds, chimney swifts and wood ducks.

Two dozen wooden bird houses were constructed by employee volunteers as part of the company’s Green Team effort to promote sustainable practices.

The Eagan campus already has 20 bluebird houses along its walking trail. When installed later this month, these houses will more than double the housing options available for these migrating birds.

Other Green Team efforts at the campus this year include restoring a 10-acre prairie and planting a community garden.

You can read more about the effort in a feature reported today in the Minneapolis Star Tribune.
