It’s been a great Earth Day so far… First, we finally dug up the lawn ready to plant a new crop of tomatoes, greens, herbs, beans and precious strawberries. When I say ‘we’, I mean the gardener, but either way, the water-guzzling grass has gone!
Next up is the fabulous community Earth Day weekend plan… which is this: a Block-Wide Yard Sale! This means that all of the houses on my street have been invited to sell and recycle their unwanted junk. What’s one person’s junk is somebody else’s treasure. It’s also a chance for everyone to say hello to each other, and if we’re lucky, our neighbors Kelly Coyne and Erik Knutsen are going to teach us how to make home-brewed beer.
Why not plan a local community sale of some kind where you live?
