Yes, World Naked Gardening Day is a thing and people are very enthusiastic about it.
Green-fingered lads and ladies all over the globe shed a few layers earlier today before getting down to work with their garden hoe, but not before taking a few photos to celebrate the occasion that was in it.
It’s believed that the event is linked to a nudist group who encourage “wholesome and unashamed acceptance of the human body” and we have to say, we’re big fans!
Here are some of the best ‘bits’ on Twitter…
