Tracy Walstead

I will plant native species, landscape with water-efficient plants, and use eco-friendly fertilizers.

I will spend 5 minute(s) each day outside, practicing gratitude (prayer, meditation, journaling, etc.) for Earth and the nature surrounding me.

I will explore at least one new hiking trail or nature walk in my area.

I will replace manual thermostats with programmable ones.

I will tend to a garden each day, or work on starting one.

I will adopt a "Needs Vs. Wants" approach and only buy things I need.

Plastic bags and small plastic pieces like straws are most likely to get swept into our waterways. I will keep 1 plastic straw(s) out of the landfill and ocean each day by refusing straws or using my own glass/metal straw.

I will not accept any disposable bags when making purchases.
