4 Ways to Green Up Your Easter Weekend

From top-left, clockwise:

1. Ensure your Easter brunch is full of lots vegetables and fruits. Especially dried fruits and nuts instead of the chocolate (or as much chocolate). Asparagus is in season now! 
2. Cut the plastic - make homemade baskets, use natural egg dyes, newspaper painted green paper. We love these decorated berry baskets!
3. If Easter is not your thing, why don't you enjoy this early spring whether by taking a hike a your local state/national park. If you are in Milwaukee, we recommend Lakeshore State Park. In Chicago, take the trip to Starved Rock, and if you are in Charlottesville, take a short hike at Shenandoah National Park.
4. Whether your Easter Weekend is full of forced family fun or not, you are probably going to need a beer, so go local. We absolutely love this website to find local breweries.
