Hi Everyone, a chance to shop really local, a
wonderful event that showcases local artisans, and this year, includes
businesses like Teeccino herbal coffee, made here in SB,
practices fair trade with products used; also Arcobaleno,
featuring Fair trade ethically produced global imports, including
SweetEarth Chocolates! (made in San Luis Obispo, but of course chocolate
coming from somewhere else, so need to think about a company that
practices fair trade ethics when buying your holiday chocolate).
Come up for a day, shop in a beautiful stress free setting, support shop
manager Gail Meadows, who has supported us through the years by so
willing stocking the shelves of the gift shop with any book we thought of
on Sustainability & Permaculture, we are thankful. Margie
