Green Projects Blossom as Ford Plants Celebrate Earth Day with Eco-Sustaining Projects
Woodhaven Forging didn't just observe Earth Day this year; they took action. With a commitment to sustainability, they spent the day preparing and planting a vibrant butterfly garden. This garden, already earning recognition as a "Monarch Waystation," isn't just a patch of flowers, it's a sanctuary for pollinators and a symbol of their dedication to the environment.
But it doesn't stop there. Inside the plant gates, they dug up part of the back lot to create a containment center for recyclables. This initiative not only reduces waste but also ensures that materials are properly disposed of and recycled.
The company's Earth Day efforts were inclusive, with three time slots for volunteering to allow all employees to participate. From executives to factory workers, everyone had a chance to get their hands dirty and contribute to a greener world.
Sharonville Transmission Plant Beautifies Its Surroundings
At the Sharonville Transmission Plant (STP), Earth Day was a time to enhance their surroundings and create a more welcoming environment. The STP Environmental Cross-Functional Team spearheaded the addition of a stunning new redbud tree and rock garden in front of the plant.
“Earth Day gives us an opportunity to reflect on the small things we can do to make the world a more livable place,” said Plant Environmental Engineer Phil Utrecht.?“The new redbud and rock garden will add a little life and color to the front of our plant to be enjoyed well into the future.”

Louisville Assembly Plant Gives Back to Nature
At the Louisville Assembly Plant (LAP), Earth Day wasn't just about celebrating; it was about giving back. Environmental control engineer Aaron Benson organized a free sapling giveaway, securing 300 saplings donated by Living Lands and Water.
On April 23rd, employees had the opportunity to take home saplings of four varieties: Pecan, Red Oak, White Swamp Oak, and Bur Oak, each marked with a color-coded string. The plant's DEI Council supported the event by promoting and volunteering, ensuring that every employee had access to a tree.
The giveaway was a hit, with employees excited to receive their saplings as they swung by one of the three pick-up sites between shifts. With each sapling planted, the Louisville Assembly Plant contributes to a greener, healthier planet for future generations.
