Eco-challenge Week 4: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Green Columbus & Columbus GreenSpot have teamed up to bring you #EarthDayAtHome!
There are many actions you can take to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Earth Day! All this month, we will be giving seed packets to 500 lucky people. These seed packets include some of the most trending native flowers like purple coneflower (Echinacea purpurea), black-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta), partridge pea (Chamaecrista fasciculata) and butterfly milkweed (Asclepias tuberosa).
Winning is as easy as 1-2-3.
