As winter has waned, the green season has dawned. The natural beauty of Assisi Heights is dressed up. Now is the opportune time for an environmental pilgrimage-on-foot, strolling through the Temple of Nature. The serpentine road carves its way past a colossal cut of limestone to expose a wall creating the hilly topography of Assisi Heights. We will discuss the story of land acquisition, conservation easement, and environmental land practices, the prairies, solar panels and other issues.

Sister Marlys Jax will give an overview of the years of various environmental practices at Assisi Heights. Wear comfortable shoes and bring a walking stick if you so desire.
