Celebrate Earth Week with Us at Down to Earth!
Happy Earth Week! ✨ As gardeners, nature lovers, and stewards of the environment, this week holds special meaning for us—and we’re inviting you to celebrate with us in big and small ways all week long!
A Little Earth Day History
Earth Day was first celebrated on April 22, 1970, as a response to growing concerns over environmental pollution and the health of our planet. It sparked a nationwide movement and led to major environmental reforms in the U.S.Since then, Earth Day has grown into a global event, with over a billion people participating each year in efforts to protect and preserve our world.
At Down to Earth, we believe Earth Day is more than a date—it’s a mindset. A reminder that we’ve each been given the gift of this beautiful world by our Creator, and it’s our joy and responsibility to care for it well.
