Every little thing helps: recycle your water bottles, conserve electricity, or reuse what you already have.
Fifteen years ago, Bill gave me a worm composter so that we could turn our food scraps into rich soil for our garden. It’s a 3-level simple home for hundreds of red wigglers that munch on potato and carrot peelings, eggshells, and melon rind. We have much less waste and dark, nutrient-rich compost to amend our herbs and fruit trees. It’s a little thing but it feels good to reuse and recycle what we already have.
Happy Earth Day.
Stay safe and happy sketching,
Terri


(Almost belated) Happy Earth Day, Terri! Great suggestions … and I am sure your garden is happier for it. Hope to “see” you on Saturday! :)
