Earth Day: Growing Seeds of Sustainability

Saturday April 16th is Earth Day, and Campus Rec will be celebrating this much-needed holiday outside at the Pineywoods’ Native Plant Center, located on Raguet Street between 10a.m. and 2 p.m.

In a world where we buy all-things disposable, leave our water running, pump gallons of gas into our cars and pave everything possible, it’s easy to forget that we’re actually impacting our environment. And the reality is that there is only so long until we’ve destroyed our environment beyond repair.

The purpose of this Earth Day celebration is to create awareness. These types of events are not intended to create guilt and manipulate people, but rather to invest in making lifestyle changes as a community.

This year’s theme for the festival is “growing seeds of sustainability”. There will be free food, guest speakers, kids’ activities, live music, plant sales’, info booths and much more.


So come out to Earth Day tomorrow from 10-2 and celebrate change with SFA and Campus Rec.
