The Bunker Interpretive Center is Calvin’s gold LEED-certified building at the edge of a 100-acre Ecosystem Preserve.
The Ecosystem Preserve includes public trails and many other features to get you connected with nature.
Calvin’s community garden is run entirely by students coordinators.
Calvin has several initiatives on campus, including a student-built demonstration wind turbine, for conserving energy and increasing the use of renewable energy.

In Their Own Words
Made in God’s image to live in loving communion with our Maker, we are appointed earthkeepers and caretakers to tend the earth, enjoy it, and love our neighbors. God uses our skills for the unfolding and well-being of his world so that creation and all who live in it may flourish.” Our World Belongs to God, A Contemporary Testimony
