Over the years it has been celebrated by a host of famous faces who are happy to share their nude exploits.

A blooming great time
QVC presenter Michael is a huge fan of world naked gardening day as he is an avid plant lover.
He tells The Sun: “It’s the day of the year that gardens come alive, in more ways than one, as people might disrobe an item of clothing or two, all in aid of “world naked gardening day”!
“Nobody quite knows how the first weekend in May became such a cause for celebration, although the event probably began in the Southern Hemisphere, since the first May isn’t always the warmest day to get your kit off in the UK!
“It’s all about body positivity, and an opportunity to immerse yourself in nature, and we all know the benefits of that.
“I was involved with one of the very first naked gardening shoots at the Virgin Roof Gardens in Kensington, a group of guys which was later assembled as the “grubby gardeners”!
We followed in the footsteps of the Calendar Girls, as we soon released our first calendar, appeared on ITV Loose Women (wearing only a microphone belt), did a “naked skydive” in a morph suit, and various other challenges.
Over the course of 5 years, we turned a little bit of flowery fun, into a donation of way over £25,000 for Perennial, The Gardeners Royal Benevolent Society!
“In the last few years, I’ve ‘retired’ from most of my world gardening day duties, but I can’t resist having a cheeky shoot each year., I’m really looking forward to seeing what else pops up on social media… literally!”
Michael posts a nude photo annually to celebrate the occasion and encourages his followers to do the same.

She shared the tale while discussing world naked gardening day and issued a challenge to followers to copy her and have a clothesless bounce.
She also opts to pose naked to celebrate her birthday, showing that getting older doesn’t make you any less sexy.
