Celebrate Earth Day Free in #Indy

EarthDayIndianaMy kids in school every year learn something about Earth Day.

Most often, I’m brought home acres of paper about the importance of recycling (which I find ironic), and usually a planted seed of some form.

It never feels like enough.

This year there is a great event we plan on attending.

Earth Day Indiana is on April 27th from 11AM-4PM at White River State Park.

It’s FREE.

Did you hear that part?

FREE.

Over 130 exhibits from cleaner fuel to wildlife protection will span the event. With all of that, there has to be something that will suit everyone in your family.

One of the proud sponsors of the event – Indiana’s Family of Farmers – will have two booths at the event.

The ever-popular “Wheel of Ag” encourages visitors to learn more about how Indiana’s farm families work hard on their farms to be good stewards of our land.  A variety of farm families from across the state will be on hand to answer questions about their farms.

Then, in the Children’s Tent, IFOF will help kids plant popcorn in biodegradable CowPots to celebrate the “Year of Popcorn” at the Indiana State Fair.  How fun is that?  I know my girls will be totally excited to plant popcorn!

So if you’re in Indy, pack up the family and head out for the event.  There’s going to be so much to do, you’ll be disappointed when the day is over.

I can promise, none of that was supplied in this case.
