EarthMonth!

Celebrate EarthMonth!

Hello!

At EarthCorps, we believe that just one day is not enough for the earth so we celebrate Earth Day as a month-long series of environmental restoration projects.  Out next project in Mercer Island that is part of EarthMonth is on April 27th at Island Crest Park.  Join me, a few of our awesome corpsmembers, your neighbors in restoring Island Crest Park!

At your home, there are lots of ways to focus on the earth this month.  Spring is a great time to bring children of all ages outside to explore the natural world.  Lots of things changing, trees leafing out, animals building nests and having babies.  Don't let rainy weather stop you, puddles are made to be jumped in.  Happy EarthMonth and hope to see you out in the forest!
