With Thanksgiving next week comes the kick-off to the holiday shopping season. The 2014 Fall Mono Lake Newsletter (and with it our holiday catalog) went out to 17,000 people earlier this month. We’ve stocked up—way up!—on shipping supplies. The Committee shopping elves are poised to answer the phone for your orders!
As you think about holiday giving, think about the ability to give twice. If you purchase a gift from the Mono Lake Committee, you’re not only giving that gift to your friend or relative. You’re also giving it back to Mono Lake by helping to support our work.
The Committee has a gift for almost everyone. You can’t go wrong giving a 2015 Mono Lake Calendar. Michael Pollan’s book Cooked is an unbeatable offering for anyone interested in food, agricultural politics, and/or the history of culinary indulgence. Charley Harper’s birds mobile could hang over a new baby’s crib or over the cat’s domain for endless hours of entertainment. The gold and silver cottonwood leaf ornaments make precious, handmade offerings, and the hand-carved wooden bird pins by local artist John Webber are gorgeous and unique.
Many other items are also on offer. Take a look at our online store, browse through the catalog in our Fall Newsletter, and call (760) 647-6595 to place your order today!
Will it be possible to order from the catalog after the holidays?
Thank you.

Hi Stephanie — yes! You can definitely order from the catalog after the holidays. Sometimes we get low on some things, like holiday cards, but most of the catalog is in stock after the holidays too.
Thanks for asking!
