Kermit’s Korner: Earth Day

March 29, 2019 by m.memmott

Earth Day this year is Monday, April 22. But there’s no reason to celebrate the earth on just one day this month― here are three things you can do for “Earth Month”:

  1. The Framingham Community Farm is a local non-profit that aims to fight hunger with fresh produce. They also provide meaningful service opportunities for youth and underserved community members. You may have seen their sixteen raised bed garden behind the office building here at Edwards Church. They are hosting a community work day to help kick-start the season on Saturday, April 6 from 10:00am to 3:00pm. If you have a couple of hours to spread some compost and help with other early season tasks please contact the office to let us know that you are interested. Or just come on that date. There will be plenty of gardening to do around the campus.
  2. The ninth annual Framingham Earth Day Festival on Saturday, April 27, on the Framingham Center Common, is in need of volunteers for set-up, clean-up, and everything in-between. You can visit framinghamearthday.org to sign up. Or attend the festival that day from 11:00am to 3:00pm, and bring items for recycling including batteries, eyeglasses, and packing peanuts (see their website for more info on recyclables).
  3. Finally, on the Sunday after Easter, April 28, we invite you to celebrate spring and walk, bike, or carpool to church to save energy with community and less emissions. Maybe you can make your new way to church part of your regular plans. Happy Earth Month!
