Holly Ann "Hollyday" J.'s Profile

Green Sustainable San Diego

I'm on a mission! Let's live in the healthiest and greenest city in America. I'd like to dine in restaurants that serve organic and locally grown fruits and vegies; offer USDA organic chicken and grass-fed beef; and have non-dairy options. I'd like to frequent establishments that care about reaching zero-carbon goals. Here's a list of places to support on this mission to have cleaner air & water and a healthy & safe earth! Let's all support Sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility.
