Baseball and softball have no offseason at The Rake. Jeremy Schellhorn opened the academy last year, converting a former greenhouse space at his Monona business, Outdoor Creations Landscape and Garden Center, into an area perfect for hitting and pitching. Artificial turf helps simulate the playing surface while fielding grounders. He’s pictured with son Jacob, who’s also an integral part of The Rake. (Photos by Audrey Posten)
