    While we love Colorado real estate, we also love Colorado. That means that, while you'll find posts that are intended to inform and educate readers about properties, homes, and land in Colorado, you'll also find first-hand information about living here. Isn't living well, after all, one of the prime objectives of finding a home?

    We aim to take your Colorado home search to new heights. We welcome and encourage your comments.

Happy Earth Day 2009

Colorado Add comments

With so much awareness around Earth Day and Earth Week, and with so many things to do in Colorado in celebration and observance of it, there are a wealth of ways to do your part.  Just for starters, I thought I’d share a few of them with you, and then celebrate the day myself by turning off my computer and taking a nice walk in the woods. (Making sure to keep an eye out for mountain lions, that is.)

  • Visit the Nature Conservency in Boulder
  • Walking to and from your favorite restaurant (preferably one that serves local food), or ordering takeout from someplace that uses bike couriers to deliver.  (Check out what Bimbamboo in Boulder is doing.)
  • Check out the Denver Children’s Museum for their Earth Day activities for kids of all ages.
  • Attend the Pikes Peak Earth Day Festival, a free, all-day festival in Colorado Springs April 25
  • Start your vegetable garden, keeping in mind how to maximize your water usage.
  • Visit your local farmer’s market.
  • Attend the Colorado State University Earth Day Celebration and Student Sustainability Fair, going on all week in Fort Collins.

And because we don’t have to stop observing Earth Day tomorrow, remember that no matter where you are or what day it is, you can always use sites like FreeCycle and Zwaggle to pass along the things you no longer need without tossing them into a landfill.

Happy Earth Day, everyone!

    I like this site and saw it on Ask search. I think your thoughts on Earth Day 2009 | Ways to Celebrate in Colorado are right on. Thanks for blogging about this and looking forward to reading more on your site.
