Happy Thanksgiving! Eat, Nap….Shop?

As we enter the time of year known as the holiday gifting season, here are a few reminders to sustainably complete your gift list:

Make a list and check it twice!

Shop local and secondhand.

Memories last a lifetime, material gifts wear out. Explore event tickets or plan a trip!

If you need it, buy it….if you don’t, it’s not actually a deal.

Avoid, avoid, avoid plastic!

Always bring a bag to transport your finds home.

Watch for more sustainable holiday tips in the coming weeks and check out our tips from last year. In the meantime, Happy Gifting!
