Get Read-y for Spring!
The vernal equinox is upon us!! (Most commonly known as the first day of spring.)

March 20th marks the day when the sun lies directly above the equator, making both night and day equal in length, then continues on its path into the Northern Hemisphere. In many cultures, spring is associated with sowing of crops and food production and is often commemorated by holidays and festivals.
