Keep Off the Grass Day


April 21 is Keep Off the Grass Day, an annual event created byJace Shoemaker-Galloway, freelance writer and "Queen of Holidays," who has spent over a decade covering all sorts of traditional, unusual and downright wacky holidays.

While "Keep Off the Grass" can mean different things to different folks, this green holiday is observed in between two momentous events. Keep Off the Grass Day is held one day before Earth Day and one day after National Pot Smoking Day, the popular pot "holidaze" where millions of marijuana enthusiasts around the world participate in various smoke-outs, rallies, marches and "pot-ties" held each year on 4/20. Coincidence perhaps?
