Buy Local Grown Holiday Decorations-Not From The Sunday Papers

As I read the Sunday advertisements yet again this year, all the floral departments of the local big box stores from grocery to department to home stores were filled with great, bargain options. With the Holidays upon us-of course they are full of holiday flowers, poinsettias, and wreaths. With that, I will explain the offerings, the prices, and of course the claims for you to make your own conclusions on the real price of the decorations and if they are really a bargain….and for whom.

Utah itself is awe inspiring; a treasure of national parks and wildlands. Three environmental films up for competition this year to watch for: Wasteland-a documentary that chronicles a photographer to the world’s largest landfill and the pickers who sift through it; recycling their lives […]
