Summer is upon us–and that means warm days, celebrating dads and the solstice moon. In the Northern Hemisphere, the first day of summer is marked by the Summer Solstice, or when the earth’s northern hemisphere tilts closest to the sun. It is also the longest day of the year, and falls on June 21st, which also happens to be Father’s Day! So, mark your calendars, and grab some chilled beer and something to grill, cause it’s gonna be a long one.

Also, don’t forget to pick up a card for dad while there’s still time or take a stay-cation with one of Masha’s watercolor summer dreamscapes. Speaking of Summer Solstice, some nature-lovers and naturalists feel one with the Earth on solstice days, and wouldn’t it be sweet to receive a note from you as well? We picked a few of our favorite outdoor-inspired delights for the tree-hugger in your life. Check them out below:
