Minnesota DNR announces auction dates and parcels for 2022 land sales

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources has state lands for sale in in Anoka, Houston, Itasca, St. Louis, and Wadena counties. The 17 parcels for sale include rural lands, with many recreational opportunities.

Annual land sales help the DNR optimize its land holdings and meet its responsibility to maximize recreational, conservation, and economic opportunities for the state. The DNR sells land at public auction in accordance with state statutes. This year, the DNR will offer two public oral bid auctions in October, followed by an online auction later this fall.
