CREST Resources: Celebrate Plant Appreciation Day!
International Plant Appreciation Day takes place on April 13 2023, so it’s the perfect time to head outside and appreciate our green earth.
Your learners can celebrate Plant Appreciation Day with CREST and learn how to nurture nature and protect our planet. Plants provide us with oxygen, food, fibre, shelter, medicine, fuel and more (not forgetting their beauty).
CREST offers numerous resources as well as accredited activities – there are so many projects to choose from!
