I live in North Idaho, which means living in unpredictable weather. You can bet that on any given day there will be sun, snow, then rain...rinse and repeat. Very frustrating as a new gardener. I really want pure sunshine for 1 week. That would be so nice.
Today I did my first burst of community service at the Harding Center in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. It was in celebration of "Earth Day," the events included learning about bee's, owls, eco-systems, water, and being eco-friendly.
The Coeur d'Alene tribal women (ages 20-30) even showed up and performed a drum ceremony complete with singing for a tree planting (in memory of a woman that passed away). It was a very cool moment I must say, very hypnotic.
I was a little disappointed in one thing...I was working at the "front desk" directing people and selling items (like shirts), and the Harding Center decided to sell water bottles for $1.00 each, due to lack of water fountains. Now honestly, this goes against pretty much anything doing with "save the earth!"
