Annual Carmel, California Mission Fiesta

Thank you to our customers who visited with us at the Carmel Mission Fiesta this past weekend.  We appreciate your support of Native Leaf’s hand-woven earth friendly, reusable, natural and durable packaging, as well as your positive comments about our gift bags and boxes.

A special thank you to Richard and Lisa who remembered us from last year, and called to pre-order our fall color, natural woven leaf placemats!  Our uniquely textured and easy care place mats usually become the household favorite.

The annual fundraising event for the  Carmel Mission’s Junipera Serra School was held at the beautiful courtyard of the historical Carmel Mission.  It was a lovely day, with happy fiesta participants listening and dancing to great music, eating good food and all the while raising funds for the school.

The Carmel Mission is on the National Register of Historic Places and is a U.S. National Historic Landmark.  Founded in 1771, it is an active parish, and the only one of the California Missions to have its original bell tower dome.
