Shop Green This Saturday

xmasreindeercrop.jpg

The Sustainable Shopper's Ball is holding their first ever Green Holiday Festival this weekend. A large number of vendors are signed up to participate in this festival, selling their organic wares. You can do some earth-friendly holiday shopping for your family and friends, or finally buy that leather-alternative bustier that you've always wanted for yourself. The festival will have speakers from Texas Impact and Austin's own green hotel Habitat Suites. There will be a "Share Booth" accepting donations of clothing, food, and winter attire for local non-profits.

In traditional holiday festival fashion, treats will be readily available and there will be live music; at this festival the treats will be organic and the music stage will be solar-powered. It should be green fun for the entire family.
