April is a good time to challenge ourselves to live more intentionally when it comes to being sustainable. Even those of us who feel like we live “green” can benefit from checking in with ourselves, our households, and our practices, and see where we can make any changes.
For Earth Month, we’re trying out a game: Earth Month Bingo. Part challenge, part self-accountability, and part “maybe I’ll win a prize”.
Each square contains a sustainable action. You get a BINGO when you complete the 5 activities listed in one vertical, horizontal, or diagonal line. The middle is a super easy one: make any sustainable purchase here in the shop (or online if you’re not local to us). This can be anything from refilling a container to purchasing a bar of shampoo. Even bringing your own mug to buy a cup of tea could count! Some sustainable purchases could even count towards other actions.
Save or screenshot the game to play. Mark off each action that you complete this month (April 2025). If the action item is a switch that you’ve previously made and continue to do through this month, it counts! Mark off that square.
Show us the card by 05/02/25: each complete BINGO is an entry to win a $25 gift card to Alchemy & Herbs. Drawing will be chosen at random on 05/03/25. You don’t have to be present to win - we’ll reach out on social media.
We started this late this month, because we just got inspired to do it a couple days ago! You have two weeks to complete a BINGO, but knowing you all, we think you can get at least one!
If you like this idea, let us know. We’re considering doing a similar challenge/game for Plastic Free July.
