A Spring List

1. Have a picnic at the beach (even if the weather is bracing).
2. Visit somewhere new, perhaps somewhere you only normally visit in the summer.
3. Make your own pesto – you could use wild garlic, nettles or spinach.
4. Go for late evening walks with a flask of something hot and enjoy the starry night sky.
5. Spring clean using natural products. You only need lemon juice, bicarbonate of soda, distilled white vinegar and a bit of beeswax.
6. Buy a bunch of seasonal British blooms: look out for daffodils, tulips, hyacinths and irises.
7. Plant seeds in the garden for flowers and vegetables. Even a tiny plot can yield plenty of salad for the summer months.
8. Make a spring wreath.
9. Challenge yourself to get outside for at least 30 minutes a day.
10. Keep a nature diary of everything you see in your garden, or when walking.
