Well, Earth Day (April 22, 2008) will soon be upon us and never has it been more important to reflect on our good mother Earth as it is on this day. But how should you celebrate? To find Earth Day events happening this week near you (or anywhere in the world for that matter) go to Earthday.net and type in your zip code. One of these events is in New York City's Central Park for the Green Apple Festival, which is being touted as America’s largest Earth Day celebration. The festival takes place April 18-20 where you can enjoy several free live music concerts, including The Bacon Brothers and Ricky Skaggs; participate in family tree planting activities; browse through the arts and crafts fair featuring items made of recycled materials; and a plethora of other green friendly Earth Day activities. Similar Green Apple Festivals are also being held across the country in Washington D.C., Miami, Chicago, Denver, Dallas, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. So, check out their website www.greenapplemusicfestival.com for more information and have fun giving your mother Earth a big old hug of thanks this Earth Day!
