Over forty people gathered on Valentine’s Day at the Prairie Woods Environmental Learning Center for a West Central CERT networking event to share their love for clean energy, get to know each other better, and talk about past and future projects in the region.
Read more about the event as well as the energy efficiency and renewable energy projects that Prairie Woods has undertaken in these two articles by West Central Tribune’s Tom Cherveny:
- Smaller, renewable energy projects setting roots across west central Minnesota
- For Prairie Woods, energy goal is now a reality
“It was great to see a crowd enthused and engaged about energy conservation and renewable energy,” says Jeff Vetsch, coordinator for the West Central CERT. “We had people from so many walks of life—architects, teachers, bankers, utility representatives, farmers—all mingling together talking about ways to save or make energy, reduce costs and support our local communities.”
