Embrace the changing season by celebrating Global Running Day and World Bicycle Day, then get back into baking by spending National Hazelnut Cake Day, National Gingerbread Day, and National Strawberry Shortcake Day in the kitchen. We’re also spending the month observing more serious holidays: Learn about the history of Pride month and how you can be an ally to the LGBTQ+ community. Set aside some time to educate yourself on the history of Juneteenth and choose a meaningful way to celebrate the holiday this year. And of course, come June 20 we’ll be showering the dads in our lives with breakfast in bed, thoughtful gifts, and homemade cards for Father’s Day. Here’s our full list of monthly, weekly, and daily holidays observed in June.
