For the 2nd year in a row, we are forced to celebrate Earth Day during a global pandemic. We may not be able to gather in large groups, but there are many ways we can celebrate Earth Day 2021. Here are some ideas.

• Attend a CITO event in your area, if they are being published. If there are no official CITO events, get outside and pick up some trash in your own neighborhood!

• Get outside and go hiking in nature. Enjoy the beautiful planet we call home. And find some geocaches along the way!

• Plant something in your own back yard. Flowers, vegetables, succulents, a young tree!

• Watch a video or documentary and learn something new about our earth and how to protect it.

• Send your kids on a nature scavenger hunt - in your backyard, neighborhood or community park.

What is YOUR favorite way to celebrate Earth Day? We'd love to hear about it!
