An outdoor treasure hunt is a great way to keep the little ones busy and excited. Hide a variety of goodies, gifts, and more outdoors (maybe in your backyard, or a park). Take this to the next level by providing treasure maps and clues.

Build a Bird Feeder or Bird House
Using recycled materials, you can build incredible homes for birds or feeders for those on the go. Check out Pinterest for a plethora of ideas on how to build the best!
Start an Indoor Herb Garden
A lot of waste we see comes from the packaging used for herbs sold in a grocery store. Making your own indoor herb garden can help eliminate that.
Go Plogging!
This is simply going for a walk, whilst taking a bag with you to pick up any waste you see on your trail to help keep your community clean.
Go for a Walk/Hike
Physical activity can be great for the whole family. Be sure to use reusable water bottles, sunscreen, and healthy snacks to keep everyone happy and hydrated. Visit AllTrails.com for the scoop on the best hikes in your area.
Visit a Local U-Pick Farm
U-Pick farms are a great way to get fresh, sustainably grown produce. Search on Google for locations nearest you. Your family will have so much fun picking out fresh fruits, veggies, and more that are organic and eco-friendly.

Use Sustainable Transportation
When traveling, be sure to limit your carbon footprint. You can utilize public transportation, ride your bike or scooter, or even carpool.
End the Day with a Refreshing Drink
The weather is getting warmer and there is no better way to end the day than with a cool, refreshing drink. This recipe uses ONEHOPE Sauvignon Blanc with half of the profits going to Save Our Planet.
No matter what plans you have for this Earth Day, be sure to keep sustainability in mind. If you are enjoying public facilities such as parks or beaches, be sure to take any waste with you and dispose of it properly, utilize reusable containers, storage, bins, etc for taking your goods on the go. Always think of ways you can reduce your carbon footprint each step of the way!
