CSA Celebrates Earth Day

Earth Day Podcast
 
In observance of International Earth Day, the Congregation of Sisters of St. Agnes will host their third annual Earth Day Festival from 1 to 4 p.m. on Sunday, April 22, in Founders Hall, at 320 County Road K, in Fond du Lac. 

Nationally, the theme is “End Plastic Pollution”; however, there will be a variety of Earth friendly topics presented in booths and tours. Wisconsin Green Muslims will provide information on their new initiative, "Faithful Rainwater Harvesting” and University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh will have a booth for the first time featuring their bio digester. New this year an electric bike will be on display.

Once again tours of CSA’s solar panels will be offered as well as easy walks through the convent grounds’ woods and prairie land that include the Niagara Escarpment. Invasive species have been removed from the woods and hard woods native to the area are being planted.
