These bags rock and you can get one for $15.00 at the Native Sun Inside & Out Earth Day Affair this weekend. They are made from a recycled billboard by your hometown heroes, Burro Bags.
We’ll have approximately 100 bags for purchase at our Inside & Out Earth Day Affair THIS SATURDAY from 12 – 4pm at our Mandarin location. We expect these bags to go fast, so arrive early for the best selection.
Read more about the bags here: Native Sun Limited-Edition Burro Bags!. I love local collaborations, this is exactly the way things should work in our city. Local companies getting together to make the city awesome.
Inside & Out Earth Day Affair
Saturday, April 18 from 12 – 4pm
10,000 San Jose Boulevard, one mile north of I-295.
This event is fun for all ages and FREE to attend!
If you went to Earthday at the Landing last Saturday you were probably kicking yourself in the head like I was, trying to wade through all the people. NOT a stroller friendly event. You might have also been snickering at the ironic-ness of people consuming armloads of promotional materials from companies like CSX and JEA that will probably end up in our landfills this week.
If you are looking for a lower-key Earthday event, try Native Sun in Mandarin this weekend (Map) where all of your plates, plasticware, cups and napkins will be biodegrable, recycled and/or made from non-GMO corn!
