Featured Days
World Wildlife Day
World Wildlife Day, which is held annually on March 3rd, celebrates the amazing wild plants and animals that play a vital role in our ecosystems. This day recognizes their unique roles and contributions to people and to the planet. The 2026 theme for World Wildlife Day is “Medicinal and Aromatic Plants: Conserving Health, Heritage, and Livelihoods.”
National Skip the Straw Day

By simply going straw-less or switching to reusable options (like paper or metal), we can drastically reduce the amount of harmful plastics that end up in our oceans and landfills.
