This National Support Small Business Day-5/10, I’m extra thankful for the local coffee shops, plant nurseries, fitness studios/gyms, farmers markets, and family-owned spots that bring so much life and heart to our neighborhoods.

Nature reminds us to slow down, breathe deep, and appreciate the little things. Our small businesses do the same!

So today:
☀️ Take the scenic route
🪴 Buy the plant
☕ Visit the local café
💪 Support the hometown studio
🌼 Celebrate the people pouring passion into their dreams

Shop small. Love local. Stay grounded in nature. 🌿

Happy Earth Day! 🌿🌱

International Dark Sky Week is a global celebration of the night.

From the darkness needed for a restful night’s sleep to the activities we enjoy beneath the stars, the night is filled with wonder and importance. Dark nights sustain critical wildlife ecosystems, strengthen the well-being of our communities, enable scientific discovery, and preserve shared cultural knowledge and traditions.

Join us this April as we “go dark” to explore the night and take action to protect dark skies worldwide.
