Every year on April 22, Earth Day marks the anniversary of the birth of the
modern environmental movement in 1970.
April is the perfect time to get a little dirt under your fingernails for EARTH
Day. Spring is fast approaching, and what a great way to bring in the new
season. We all love its sunshine and greenery with new opportunities in
blossom. Planting seeds is a perfect way to welcome a warmer time of year
and for fresh starts. Depending on where you live, get outside and plant seeds today! Or you can plant your seeds inside in a pot and move them out in another month or so. Gardening is a sure way to brighten your day and
bring you some happiness and delicious treats this summer!
