Work in your Garden Naked Day

Let’s Strip Down And Get Down To Earth

Have you ever felt like your clothes are cramping your horticultural style? Like your trowel hand gets tangled in a shirtsleeve while you’re trying to wrestle in that unruly tomato vine? Ever felt the urge to toss aside societal norms and embrace the great outdoors in your birthday suit?
Work in your Garden Naked Day, affectionately known as WNGD for short, is a celebration of gardening au naturel.
No clothes, no cares, just you and your garden, getting down to business.
It’s a return to the Garden of Eden, but this time fig leaves are optional!

Unleash Your Inner Wildflower

Now, you might be wondering, “why on earth would I want to prune my rosemaries in the buff”?
It’s a chance to reconnect with nature in the rawest form possible. Shedding your clothes, getting your feet bare, your hands dirty and your soul refreshed reminds us of our primal connection to the earth.
Plus, there’s something undeniably freeing about feeling the sun’s rays on every inch of your skin. Plants aren’t the only ones that need to photosynthesize!
It’s like a botanical spa day, but without the cucumbers on your eyes.

Sun’s Out, Buns Out!

So, this first Saturday of May, why not take a walk on the wild side?
Grab your watering can, head out to your backyard paradise and shed those sartorial shackles. Feel the breeze tickle your tomatoes, the grass beneath your feet and the sun on your… sunflowers.
Plant a tree, tend your flowers, or just lie down on the grass and feel the earth beneath you. Or, for the gymnastically inclined, have a naked yoga session amongst the blooming begonias. It’s all about connecting with nature in the most authentic way possible and it’s a great way to keep those tan lines at bay!
And if anyone peeks through the hedge and wags their finger at you, just tell them Wild Calendar gave you permission to garden in the buff in the sanctity of your personal space. Then chase them off with a stern stream from your water-hose because peeping toms are the pests in your garden of Eden!

Feeling a bit self-conscious about the whole public display of, uh, peonies?
You can enjoy your naked time in the safety of your indoor garden while tending to your house plants.  They may need some watering or even a bit of dusting. You could even treat them to some music. Scientists are still not sure which plants prefer Mozart or which plants prefer some hearty classic metal. What better way to find out than to run some experiments?

Au Naturel and Unstoppable

So, what are you waiting for? Go out there and make Mother Nature proud!
Throw caution and clothes to the wind and embrace the joy of naked gardening. Experience the birds and the bees, the flowers and the trees and yourself as nature intended. May your flowers bloom and your inhibitions wilt.
Happy Work in your Garden Naked Day!
