THE LIONSEED

The Lionseed, located in beautiful Battle Lake, Minnesota, is home to our bookstore and learning commons. We host public and private events, offer academic skill-building services and a safe, welcoming space for creative, community-building ideas. The Lionseed opened to the community on May 29, 2022. 

TENDING WINDMILLS

Tending Windmills, LLC (TWL) is our parent company focused on serving local communities through creative educational and community-building endeavors. TWL was founded by owner/executive director Kristin Sawyer Lyman in 2017.

We began by offering Barton Reading & Spelling tutoring for students with dyslexia and quickly expanded to include Executive Function Skills Coaching and Academic/Career Coaching services for neurodiverse K-12, post-secondary and graduate students. In 2020, Kristin was selected to become a PACER Parent Leader, which provided her with invaluable training to become a strong advocate and resource for students with special needs.
