BONUS: Embracing a Good Dirt Holiday: A Sustainable and Mindful Approach to the Season

Welcome to our November Bonus episode of The Good Dirt Podcast! With the holidays right around the corner, the consumerism capitalistic market is about to ramp up to full speed. You are going to be bombarded by a message to buy, buy, buy. But what if there was another way? Mary and Emma sit down to present an alternative to diving into the world of holiday celebrations and the concept of a "Good Dirt" holiday. They discuss the importance of thoughtful gift-giving, alternative gift ideas, and the joy of giving gifts that align with the recipient's interests and values. The holiday season doesn't have to be perfect - small shifts towards a more sustainable and mindful holiday experience make all the difference over time.
