Central Market and the City of Shoreline held their annual Earth Day Every Day event at Aurora Square on Saturday, April 29, 2017.

The goal was to Celebrate Earth Day and be inspired to make a difference throughout the year.

This year Shoreline gave away 15 pound bags of organic worm castings to augment garden soil and lawns. Even though there was a line, there was enough for everyone.

Recology, Shoreline's garbage, recycling, and yard waste service provider, had one of their big trucks for kids to visit.

Diggin' Shoreline was there with gardening information and advice, and vegetable starts.

Information booths, like this King County display on noxious plants, had pamphlets on how to protect our climate and reduce pollution. Here's their online information.

There were still bags of worm casting left in the afternoon, but the event still had another hour to run.

The event is held every year on a Saturday near Earth Day, end of April.
