Madison County CAFO Opponents in the News
Justin Schneider with the Herald Bulletin has a nice piece up on the Elwood Concerned Citizens anti-CAFO group, working in Madison County
“My home is in Elwood. There are 75 houses in the city within a mile and a half of the proposed site and some have been there for 30 years,” said group member Raeanna Merritt. “This is the social and educational center of the community. We have four of five schools here, the outdoor glass festival is here and we want the air to be pleasant.”
–>That mile and a half area also includes 12 farms and 25 rural homes. Extend that area to two miles and it includes a nursing home, assisted living facility, Birch Bayh Senior Citizens Center, the city pool, three businesses and more.
