The Big Clothing Swap

Feb. 15, 2025

According to Earth.org, an international environmental news website, 100 billion garments are produced each year…and 92 million tons of clothing waste ends up in landfills. This week, you can take a step toward sustainability—and have some fun shopping—with Blessed Be Tea and Apothecary’s Big Clothing Swap. Bring gently used, clean clothing (all sizes, all genders) to the downtown TC shop before Feb. 19 and receive one ticket per donated piece, good for any item at the swap. On Wednesday, Feb. 19, from 12-6pm, shop the swap! Use your ticket(s) to find a new-to-you look, and know that all leftover clothing will be donated to the Women’s Resource Center. Find Blessed Be at 116 E Front St. in Traverse City and get more information at blessedbetea.com.
