Mother’s Day is this Sunday, May 10th!
Here are 5 ways you can show some love to your Mama while honouring Mother Nature herself.
- Support your favourite local small businesses by shopping in their online stores for eco-friendly gifts. Most offer delivery or curbside pick up, but even if they are closed, you can likely still buy a gift certificate for Mom to cash in at a later date.
- Plant trees! If you can’t plant Mom a new tree in her backyard for Mother’s Day, consider making a donation to One Tree Planted in her name.
- Build a raised bed and help Mom plant a new edible garden from seed. The book Raised Bed Revolution is an amazing resource for starting this project from scratch.
- Help Mom conveniently cut down on single-use plastics with a gift certificate for a mobile refillery service like Park Market and Refillery.
- Reduce waste and save trees by wrapping Mother’s Day gifts with joywrap! One tree is planted for each piece of joywrap we make.
