by Tawny Reynolds on Feb 22, 2017

This week's featured shop is The Marine Mammal Center in Sausalito, California. The mission of the Marine Mammal Center is to advance global ocean conservation through marine mammal rescue and rehabilitation, scientific research, and education.

The Marine Mammal Center is free and open to the public every day of the year except Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Day. This time of year (February to May) is pupping season, and The Marine Mammal Center has northern elephant seals and California sea lion pups!

    I’m thrilled to see the gift shop of a conservation and science center focuses on local made, enviormnentally friendly products, available for purchase. When I see plastic mass produced junk in the gift shop, it makes me think the center is lying about their overall purpose. WTG! folks.
