Looking for a way to safely enjoy the great outdoors, free from any potential problems or pests in the air? So are we! As we continue to shelter in place and practice social distancing, there are plenty of ways to do so in fun and sustainable ways! Our backyards are waiting for us to play catch with the kids, wrestle with the dog and enjoy a quiet evening with a book. Our neighborhoods are inviting us to stretch our legs and notice the beauty all around us.

When you reach for your mask, consider going reusable with fashionable and functional face masks from Dana Herbert. Handmade with 100% cotton, these masks come from our sister state, Oregon, and every purchase supports the Oregon Food Bank.
