Happy Earth Day!

It’s Earth Day Wedgewood Houston!

Celebrate our amazing planet right here in our neighborhood! Earth Day, on April 22nd, is a global day to show our love for the environment. While big solutions are important, there are many simple things we at Wedgewood Houston can do to protect our planet every day.

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle: It's a classic for a reason! Reduce the amount you throw away by using reusable bags, water bottles, and coffee mugs. Before tossing something, consider if it can be reused for another purpose or recycled.

Wedgewood Houston Goes Green:

  • Plant Power: Plant a native wildflower garden to attract pollinators like butterflies and bees. Even a small balcony container garden can make a difference!

  • Water Wisely: Take shorter showers, fix leaky faucets, and water your lawn less frequently. Every drop counts!

  • Clean Up Crew: Organize a neighborhood clean-up day! Grab some gloves and bags and pick up litter in the park or along the street.

  • Shop Green: Support local businesses that prioritize sustainability. Look for products with minimal packaging and choose reusables over disposables.

  • Compost Champs: Kitchen scraps and yard waste can be composted to create nutrient-rich fertilizer for your garden. Less waste headed to landfills means a happier planet!

Small Steps, Big Impact:

By working together, our small actions can add up to a big impact. Let's celebrate Earth Day every day in Wedgewood Houston and show our beautiful planet some love!

Head down to Jackalope brewery today and sign up for a Wedgewood Houston cleanup day… and have a beer to celebrate Earth Day with your neighbors.
