Film Night at Our San Antonio Store!

 

Whole Earth Provision Co. and Patagonia are joining forces to bring you a very special evening of films and discussion. Please join us on Saturday, February 4th at our Whole Earth store in San Antonio from 6:30 to 8:30.

It's the third installment of Patagonia's ongoing "It's All Home Water" series and focuses on the irreplaceable beauty of the Boundary Waters, now under threat from a toxic, sulfide-ore copper mine planned dangerously close to the park's border.

The pandemic had a terrible impact on the store. This film helped to raise $172,000 to keep the store open through a GoFundMe campaign. Dawes is an avid hiker and dedicated to connecting Slim Pickins to the culture and community of Stephenville, Texas and to the great outdoors.

Our San Antonio Whole Earth store is located at the Quarry Market, 255 E. Basse Rd. Please reserve your seat today on Eventbrite. We look forward to seeing you at this very special event.
