You should never pick a trillium. Here's why:
1. It takes 9 years after germination for a trillium to flower.
2. Each flower yields only ONE seed pod each year.
3. Each plant can live up to 25 years, and gains all of its nourishment for the remainder of the year during the spring when its leaves are present.
4. Trillium are propagated by ANTS. Not bees, the wind, or birds. The seeds are covered by a sweet coating which entices the ants to carry seeds underground into their colonies. After eating the coating, the seed germinates in the perfect subterranean environment.

As the Super Bowl weekend approaches, let's huddle up for some sustainable game day strategies!

Whether you're hosting or attending watch parties, consider carpooling with friends to reduce emissions. Opt for plant-based snacks and reusable cups/plates to cut down on waste. Embrace the spirit of competition by challenging guests to a "green" potluck or organizing a halftime recycling relay.

How will you tackle sustainability this Super Bowl weekend? Share your eco-friendly game plan below! 🏈🏆

Local grocery stores or winter CSA's are a great option for sustainability with many benefits:

- Reducing carbon 🚛 Local produce travels shorter distances, reducing transportation carbon emissions
- Preserving biodiversity 🌱 Local farmers often prioritize diverse and heirloom varieties, contributing to biodiversity and preserving unique plant strains
- Building Community Resilience 🤝 Supporting local agriculture helps build resilient communities, fostering a connection between consumers and growers
- Healthier Eating 🥗 Choosing locally sourced, fresh produce often means you're getting nutrient-rich, seasonal items. It's a step towards building a better relationship with food and nature

When you shop, consider the impact of your choices on both your well-being and the health of our planet. Small changes in our shopping habits can lead to big positive effects! 🛒💚
