As we approach April, it is the time of year when we see new blooms and begin working in our gardens. I always appreciate that Earth Day is during the most active month of the year. As I watch new growth, I always reflect on how to make more people aware of simple ways that we can conserve and be good stewards of our planet. This past month I worked on several activities to help you bring awareness to Earth Day this year. My favorite is FREE. It is an Earth Day Awareness Calendar that will aid in challenging students to reduce, reuse, and recycle.
