I was on my usual rounds this morning as you do and i came across an article regarding the Spring Equinox, and a way to celebrate it.... Although a good article i was a bit dismayed at a quote coming from a well known author regarding picking Wild flowers....
This is actually illegal to do in most places and a far better way to celebrate this wonderful day would be to go and buy some wildflower seeds and scatter them in your own garden.....Maybe you could buy some spring plants for the garden or a nice potted plant for your kitchen window...
Picking Wild flowers from hedgerows and woodlands, not only stops others from enjoying them, but if we all go around doing this it will upset the balance of the Eco system.....
By all means go out and enjoy the bounty of spring, just be aware of what picking wild flowers may do.....
Just thought i should point this out.......
