White Bear Lake Earth Day

The notion of taking care of your planet so it can take care of you isn’t a new one, and the annual RITE of Spring event in Mahtomedi reinforces that idea.

Now in its eighth year, the RITE of Spring (the acronym stands for Really Into the Earth) is held around Earth Day to remind residents to be mindful of their consumption habits. Put on by the city of Mahtomedi Environmental Commission in combination with Mahtomedi School District Community Education, this event helps Mahtomedi residents educate themselves so they can do all they can to keep the area green.
