This is according to LawnStarter, which ranked Austin the 4th best city for gardening naked, which is a big deal since World Naked Gardening Day was recently celebrated.
World Naked Gardening Day (WNGD) is part of an international movement, celebrated every year on the first Saturday in May. The event encourages people to garden naked in order to promote a sense of freedom, body positivity and a closer connection with nature.
Participants believe that naked gardening is liberating, fun and a unique way to engage with the environment. Although it may sound unconventional, the practice has gained popularity in different parts of the world and even in some cities and communities. In Austin, naked gardening is great for fertile soil.
