5 Simple, Green Mother’s Day Surprises for Eco Loving Moms

With Mother’s Day coming up on Sunday, I have seen Mr. Sweet Greens and Eben doing a lot of whispering and sneaking around the house. Ha! I wonder what big surprises they have in store for me. Here are a handful of simple, green, Mother’s Day surprises that you can plan for Sunday. I hope to be surprised with one or two!

1. Scenic Hike or Bike

What is more fun that packing up the camera, snacks, wildlife guides, and other goodies and taking a hike or bicycle ride with the ones you love? What a great way to get a little fresh air, while spending quality time with family.

2. Visit a Garden

How lovely would it be to set off for lunch and a stroll at one of the many local gardens? Spending a day meandering through a beautiful garden, smelling the flowers, and watching the bumble bees – followed by lunch on the lush green grass, sounds perfect to me!

3. Patio Brunch

Mother’s Day brunch on our patio is a tradition that we have celebrated year after year. What a great way to start the day – fresh mimosas, organic fruit + yogurt and German pancakes in the sun!

4. Surprise Picnic

I love picnics! The combination of yummy food laid out on a blanket, my toes in the grass, birds chirping and the sun shinning overhead – what’s not to love? It’s even better when you get to cuddle with the ones that you love.

5. Simple Treats

My favorite gifts to receive on Mother’s Day are handwritten love letters and gifts made by Eben, an eco-friendly journal, book or organic clothing from Mr. Sweet Greens and getting to spend an entire day enjoying my family. Maybe this year, I will get an organic cupcake too!

What is the one way that you hope to be surprised on Mother’s Day?
