Don't confuse this carving with the one in Menahga..they are totally different.
St. Urho Tree Trunk Carving的点评
点评：I am of Finnish descent. I have relatives all over NE Minnesota and along the North Shore. So I am very familiar with this area. Many people are aware of, or have visited Finland, Minnesota. I'm not sure how many has seen the excellent wood carving at the north end of town in a tiny wedge of a park.
It is represents St Urho is about 18 feet tall and is carved from a single tree.
It was carved in 1982 by a local man by the name of Don Osborn.
Now, it seems many people have confused this carving with the statue in Menahga, they are totally different. Yet internet searches have the two confused.
St. Urho – is the patron saint of the Finnish Vineyard workers. Before the last glacial period wild grapes grew with abundance in the area now known as Finland. The legend says he chased away the grasshoppers that were eating the grapes used to make wine. To this day, Finnish people all over the world celebrate St. Urho's Day on March 16. On that day they wear Purple and Green (for the grapes and the grasshoppers). The statue still stands proudly, but a nearby tree needs to be trimmed back to allow better views of it.

翻译：我是芬兰后裔。我的亲戚遍布明尼苏达州东北部和北岸。所以我对这片地区非常熟悉。很多人都知道或去过明尼苏达州的芬兰镇。我不知道有多少人见过镇北边一个小公园里那尊精美的木雕。
它代表着圣乌尔霍，高约18英尺，由一棵树雕刻而成。
它是由一位名叫唐·奥斯本的当地人于1982年雕刻而成。
现在，似乎很多人把这尊雕刻和梅纳哈加的雕像混淆了，它们完全不同。然而，网上搜索却把两者混淆了。
圣乌尔霍是芬兰葡萄园工人的守护神。在上一个冰河时期之前，如今被称为芬兰的地区野生葡萄茂盛生长。传说他赶走了那些偷吃酿酒葡萄的蚱蜢。至今，世界各地的芬兰人仍在3月16日庆祝圣乌尔霍节。当天，他们会穿上紫色和绿色的衣服（象征着葡萄和蚱蜢）。这座雕像依然傲然屹立，但附近的一棵树需要修剪一下，以便更好地观赏。
