Happy Earth Day, everyone! Earth Day is a great day to celebrate our planet and make a difference in our communities. If you're looking for ways to get involved this year, here are five great Earth Day activities you can try:

1. Start a Garden

One great way to celebrate Earth Day is to get your hands in the soil and plant some grass, flowers or vegetables. Gardening is a fun and rewarding activity that's great for the environment. Not only does it reduce carbon emissions by producing local food, but it also helps to purify the air and beautify our communities.

The Hummingbird & Butterfly Wildflower Seed Mix produces bright flowers that attract pollinators and looks great in your yard or garden! The Bee Pollinator Wildflower Seed Mix is an excellent way to help promote bee health, which drastically impacts our planet in a positive way. Both bags contain over 100,000 mixed seeds and is free of neonic pesticides, making them better options for our planet. Both are available as a pack for just $29.99!

Spend more time outside on a lush lawn! Canada Green Grass Seed works in even the toughest climates from 40 degrees below zero to high summer heat (up to 120 F). It also crowds out weeds so grass grows healthy and strong.

Efficiently hydrate your lawn and garden with this Adjustable-Height Tripod Sprinkler!

The tripod height is adjustable, allowing you to water the areas you want with ease. It also can dispense water farther without having to frequently move the sprinkler to new spots. And as an eco-friendly sprinkler, this adjustable-height tripod sprinkler uses a third less water than traditional sprinklers

4. Install Solar Lights

Installing solar lights in your home or community is an excellent way to reduce your carbon footprint and save on energy bills. Not only are they a more environmentally-friendly option than traditional lighting, but they're also easy to install and require little to no maintenance.

The Bell and Howell Bionic Floodlight is the eco-friendly, Solar Powered Motion-Activated, multi-directional floodlight that absorbs the sun's energy all day by using the on-board solar panel so that at night it will shower a span of light. Each of the three separate panels on the Bionic Floodlight can trigger 108 high-intensity LED bulbs when motion is detected, to blast a bright, penetrating light. Choose from four modes including strobe alert and direct the light exactly where you want it, illuminating the night with ultra-bright light.
