 The Pike County Conservation District is giving back to the community in celebration of Earth Day. They'll be handing out red bud tree seedlings all week and offering helpful advice on how to keep the planet clean. Mountain Top News spoke with District Administrative Secretary Lisa Birchfield to learn more. We just want everybody to kind of turn their attention towards the environment and think about ways that they can do to help protect whether it be recycling, start a compost, just anything that will help even if it's just going out picking up garbage in your neighborhood. Anything that's going to help protect the environment. And today, because it is Earth Day, we have some free tree seedlings to give out and they are red bud. Do have just a limit on those. We didn't keep back a lot from the tree seedling giveaway, but we did keep some. Pain and Rock, help plant a garden, plant some flowers. So we just like to encourage everybody to get your kids, your grandkids, nieces and nephews, whatever outside and just plant a tree with them or something other and just talk to them about ways that they can help save our environment.

There are plenty of ways a single person can help. Of course, recycling is always a big issue. There's so many ways that we can reuse so much of our stuff that we do, milk jugs. I mean, there are so many other things that kids can do with milk jugs. I mean, make a birdhouse out of it, you know, and show kids that, you know, everything is always just garbage. Our environment provides so much stuff for us. I mean, if everybody cuts down our trees, we don't have any more trees that people don't keep replanting them, we're not going to have an error to breathe. So, you know, we have to take care of it. We're at the take care of us. Reporting for Mountain Top News, I'm Nick Colum.
