Unite for Earth Day 2024- Education

For 2024, we held in person Education stations with the theme of "Planet vs. Plastics" and focused on "Sustainability".


Besides the great Sustainability Patch Program and all the donated goodies from Cabot Creamery including cheese samples, we had other donations. All Seasons Wild Bird Store donated birdfeeders & birdseed. Friends of the Wayzata Library donated used books as a way to reuse rather than buying new.  We had an enthusiastic electrical engineer from Xcel Energy facilitating our Reduce Station.


 Our Daisy Girl Scouts worked on their "Make the World a Better Place" petal badge.  Our Scouts BSA participants earned conservation hours.

If you missed our event or doing the Sustainabiilty stations, you can follow the program through our website and earn the patch.

Thank you to everyone who participated and to our amazing supporters.

Unite for Earth Day 2024- Conservation

Our In-person Session for 2024 was completing conservation cleanup projects.  The theme was "Planet vs. Plastics" while cleaning up the Orono Nature Center.  

Thank you to everyone who participated.  We had people picking up trash, clearing debris from trails, clearing vines blocking trails, removing buckthorn, and more.

We appreciate all our volunteers plus the volunteer time and expertise from our Arborist with Rainbow Treecare who supported this event.

Photos are not currently being posted due to being over our storage space for a free WiX website.  If you would like to submit any photos from our event, please email them to uniteforearthday@gmail.com.
