Welcome to Climate Action Day 2018, Exeter’s fourth annual day devoted to climate education for our community! The Committee is so excited about this year’s lineup of events and workshops, which we hope you will peruse as you contemplate what draws you in.

We hope you encounter the amazing student environmental work happening on campus, and so we are offering the following workshops and events designed and facilitated by students: The Exeter Exchange workshop; an E-proctor Hydroponics workshop; a Divest Exeter! workshop; performances by the Concert Choir featuring Eric Sinclair and Democracy of Sound (exeter); The Three Ecologies, a community film festival hosted by the Lamont Gallery featuring original short films by students and faculty as well as performances by Art and Activism club, Exeteras, and PEADS.

Spring Planting at Willow Pond FULL

Log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

Limited Capacity filling up

Willow Pond Farm is a local Community Supported Agriculture farm (CSA) that sells farm shares to local families and donates portions of their harvest to St. Vincent’s food pantry. Come and spend the morning learning about CSA’s and the local food movement, working on the farm to get it ready for its spring planting season. What better way to spend Climate Action Day than by practicing the community act and art of growing food?

Please remember to wear boots, long pants, and light-colored clothing, and to use an insect spray such as Deep Woods Off to reduce the risk of a tick bite, as ticks in this area may carry Lyme Disease.  After the workshop, please conduct a tick check on yourself.
