World Frog Day, celebrated around the world on March 20th, is an annual event that raises awareness about the importance of frogs in ecosystems and highlights their important role in biodiversity. The day also serves to bring attention to the threats frogs face, such as habitat loss, pollution, climate change and disease, and to promote conservation efforts to protect these amphibians.

People celebrate the day in a variety of ways. Organizations, schools, and nature reserves host educational programs to inform people about frogs, their habitats, and the environmental challenges they face. Frog watching is another way to celebrate with nature lovers visiting local ponds, swamps, or wetlands, where frogs are often found. Activists and organizations also use social media to spread awareness, sharing facts about frogs, posting photos, and encouraging followers to take part in conservation efforts.

Handcrafted from blackened pewter, Alchemy England's Black Paddock Pendant is another fantastic way to mark World Frog Day, whilst also serving as a powerful companion for witches and practitioners alike. The word paddock was historically used as an old folk term for a frog or a toad. In earlier times, especially in British English, "paddock" was a colloquial term for these amphibians, likely due to their association with damp, muddy environments, such as those found in small fields or enclosures near water. The Black Paddock Pendant embodies the spirit of magic and transformation and is a perfect adornment for those who dare to stand out.
