For Earth Day (April 22nd) and any day, I would suggest picking up litter. Even if it is just in your yard, every little bit of litter picked up makes a difference.
Picking up litter is great exercise that produces quick results.

Is Earth Day considered an excellent day to plant crops?
By Susan Wolfe from Clinton, TN
It might be where you live. In Vermont our last frost is usually late April/early May so we plant on Memorial Day (late May).
We have to plant when the soil is warm enough to plant or the seed will rot, not come up in south AL. Maybe next week will be warm enough,(4-20 +), I will plant my spring & summer garden then.
The Old Farmer's Almanac has moon planting guides, if that was what you had in mind.
Anyone have suggestions for celebrating earth day? I found some ideas here:

- getting everyne together to discuss the benefits of teh earth
- getting everyone together to watch a good movie about the environment. One off the top of my mind (though super old) is 'an inconvenient truth' about global warming
I would get a bunch of people together and clean up a park or playground.
I'm looking for some good, easy Earth Day recipes. Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks
