Join the Middleton Public Library and the City of Middleton’s Sustainability Committee for an ongoing series to help Middleton residents learn about living sustainably, why it matters, what our city is doing, and how you can help.

Their next event will be held at 6:00 p.m., Thursday, Oct. 24, and will feature speaker Kathleen Slattery-Moschkau.

Kathleen is the developer of Belle Farm, a new kind of residential community in Middleton, Wisconsin focused on physical and mental well-being and a deep respect for the earth. Kathleen will discuss the Belle Farm neighborhood and its emphasis on net-zero/resilient homes, walkability, connection to the outdoors, compact development, geothermal, solar, timeless architecture, and more.

Kathleen is the hands-on developer of Belle Farm and heavily involved in all aspects of design. She shepherded the 44-acre Belle Farm site from pre-acquisition through the entitlement process, converting the land use into a sustainable, resilient and walkable neighborhood with an emphasis on healthy living. She was not alone. Kathleen worked with a team of outstanding local and national talent—land planners, engineers, architects, financial analysts, attorneys and builders—who continue to bring their experience, passion and commitment to the Belle Farm project.

Kathleen has spent the past two decades of her career advocating healthy living via film, radio, writing platforms, speaking events and physical venues. Her work has been featured by media outlets worldwide including The New York Times, USA Today, CNN, The Economist, Oprah Radio, Oprah Magazine and many more.
