Earth Day is April 22nd, this year. Two years ago I was given a Dog Wood sapling on Earth Day, that I've happily nurtured and just recently the little bugger was re-potted by my husband, to a nicer and bigger pot. One day it'll find a home when I decide where I'd like to put her for life.
I also love our new town. They give recycling buckets and pick up once a week. Ours is always full :-)
