PODCAST: Lead and Arsenic in Door County Soils

As Crossroads at Big Creek undertakes a project to clean contamination on its property from former pesticide mixing sites, Debra Fitzgerald talks with Bill Schuster about historic orchard management practices and the legacy they left in Door Soils. Schuster not only founded the county’s Soil and Water Conservation Department, he grew up in Door County and worked in those orchards that later in his career he’d be charged with cleaning.
