Unite for Earth Day 2022

For our 2022, we were back in-person.

We had over 85 people participate on Monday, April 25, 2022.  Troops, Dens, & Families came and left the Orono Nature Center and Pavilion between 2:30 and 8:00 pm. 

​

About 50 participants earned the Free Cabot Creamery "B the Change Patch".  Participants learned about B

Corps and businesses that give back. 

Thank you to our amazing supporters:

Cabot Creamery for providing the Patches, Vermont Seriously Sharp Cheddar Cheese Samples, stickers, temporary tattoos, and pencils. Seven Sundays provided their Real Berry Sunflower Cereal or snack.  All Seasons Wild Bird Store provided about 50 refurbished birdfeeders, seed, and a great informational poster on Avian Flu.  Rainbow Treecare has a super Arborist who volunteered his time, expertise, and labor for our event.​

​

We additionally had many Girl Scouts complete the "Jane Goodall" patch segment of the Because of Her Patch Series.  Thank you to our Ambassador Girl Scouts for hosting this.

​

Thank you to everyone who participated and endured the cold weather we had.  We had people picking up trash, blowing and raking leaves, clearing debris from trails, moving mulch, spreading mulch on trails, clearing vines blocking trails, removing buckthorn, and more.

​​

We appreciate the volunteer time from our Arborist, Naturalist, and Grounds Staff that supports this event.
