Fair Share and Hallogreen


*********************

Fair Share: Sustainable Urban Agricultural Project is an organization I was briefly introduced to last year during a Halloween visit to Daytona. My friend and fellow designer, Nancy and I stumbled upon Hallogreen last year right around noon as things were wrapping up. We were both really impressed with the organization's vision and hoped to get involved the following (this) year.

Many folks in Daytona's Hallogreen are helping build a healthier giving community through the likes of non-profits such as Fair Share. I'm looking forward to sharing my artwork and meeting some amazing folks. Hope you can come join us:

"The Hallogreen® is opening this Saturday, October 30th from 8am to 12noon at the Daytona Beach Downtown Farmers Market (located near 105 E Magnolia Ave, 32114).

The Hallogreen® is a fun, healthy, and eco-friendly alternative to traditional Halloween festivities. It is a Green Halloween® event, part of a national nonprofit, grassroots community initiative to create healthier and more Earth-friendly holidays, starting with Halloween (greenhalloween.org).

The Hallogreen® is organized by volunteers of Florida EcoNet and Green Halloween®, as a fundraiser for The Fair Share Urban Agriculture Project (wedigfairshare.org)".
