EARTH DAY- GIVE A TREE
What We Did:
Planting a tree is one of the classic Earth Day projects so we came up with this project that could help encourage others to celebrate Mother Earth by growing something green. We have some very large Coast Live Oaks growing by our house whom's acorns have produced many seedlings this year. The seedlings wouldn't have survived the gardeners whacker much longer so we re-potted about 16 Oak seedlings into plantable pots. We took some to playschool to share and sent the rest with Dad to the office. Hopefully these native trees will continue to be a source of life and happiness and, in our case, tree swings.
How Long it Took:
45 minutes
How Much it Cost:
$6 for plantable pots.
Would We Do It Again?
Yes. Fun, easy, hands in the dirt kind of fun.
Next Time:
Cross our fingers that we'll have have more seedlings :)
