Kendra Scott Earth Day give back event today to benefit Riverwalk
Today is Earth Day, and in honor of that, one downtown Naperville store is hosting a give back event to benefit the Naperville Riverwalk.
Kendra Scott, located at 55 S. Main St., will donate 20% of all sales today to The Naperville Riverwalk Foundation. The shop is open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Those shopping online can also take part by using the code GIVEBACK-JGBTD.
Registration underway for No Mow ‘Til Mother’s Day
Registration is now open for the No Mow ‘Til Mother’s Day campaign.
The city of Naperville is allowing residents to give a boost to pollinators by choosing to delay mowing their lawn and refrain from applying pesticides, herbicides, or chemical fertilizers until after Mother’s Day. Doing so helps out bees, moths, and various butterflies like the Monarch, by promoting their habitats.
Those interested can register online through the city’s website. They can then download a sign from the city to display noting they are taking part in the campaign, keeping them free of any regulations about weeds or grass height through May 17. The extra cushion of time past Mother’s Day, which is May 11, allows residents time to mow before rules kick back in.
