StandOurGround Lawn Signs are ready for pickup or delivery

Please contact us at standourground.russell@gmail.com or through our website contact form and we will make sure you get one. The signs are priced at $15 to help offset production costs. All funds raised by StandOurGround will be allocated to cover incurred expenses. We started StandOurGround because many of us in the community started sharing our concerns that our farmland and rural countryside are disappearing fast. We all live here because we love this way of life. If we don’t take action soon, we’ll lose the very things that make our township special!

Join the StandOurGround email group today!

The concerned citizens of StandOurGround are asking for a pause in development to rethink the Russell Township development plans. We want to prioritize quality over quantity and focus on thoughtful growth that aligns with the town’s values. This includes limits on development, more resident input, and better protection for farmland and the environment. We also want to see more support for agriculture as a key part of our local economy. Please join our group. Contact us at standourground.russell@gmail.com or through our website contact form.
