National Seed Day is a celebration of seeds, it is the thought that plants are extremely important to our ecosystem and we should respect and celebrate them for all they have to offer. From vegetables, to fruits, to beautiful flowers, they filter our Co2 and give us oxygen to breathe. Justa Velez was interviewed May 9, 2017 and was asked a few questions. She stated “some of my favorite plants to sell are sunflowers, daffidophiles, and Rutabaga. Sunflowers especially remind her of her late grandmother Jill, who started the tradition to plant ten flower seeds on labor day every year. When asked “why do you love these traditions” she replied “ because spending time with family and helping our environment is more important than spending time on our phones and watching Netflix.” Justa also wanted to add that she thinks everyone should go out and plant a variety of flowers or vegetables because why wouldn’t you want to bring beauty to our world?
