JBF Tacoma IN THE NEWS!

Our FIRST article in the Tacoma News Tribune!
Our FIRST formal introduction to the community!

Special Thanks to:
  • Whitney Coleman (Reporter) who came to my home EARLY in the morning to interview us;
  • Peter Haley (Photographer) who literally got down on the floor to get great shots; and
  • Whitney's co-worker, a JBF First Time Parent who told Whitney about JBF...THANK YOU!!!

This was so much fun! My daughter Maya loved getting her picture taken!

JBF in the News

This is a recent newscast from the JBF Sacramento sale (click on "JBF in the News" and be sure to wait for the video to load). Shannon tells us exactly what JBF is all about, shows off some items, and talks through a JBF sale event. If you're serious about JBF, this is a great introduction!

First JBF Work Party


1 AMAZING Dad, 4 Friends, 1 Brother and 5 hours of hard labor

We're growing fast...this finally feels real!

It's not even March yet and over 200 South Sound families have signed up online to participate in the Spring Sale at the Puyallup Fair & Events Center Expo Hall April 24-26, 2009!

It looks like our FIRST sale will be HUGE! This is awesome! Families (especially Moms!) are learning about JBF and loving the idea.

It's obvious that JBF is exactly what this area needs and what this economy needs! Where else can you create your own economic stimulus check with the stuff you already have in your home (twice a year!)? Where else can you clothe your child for 6 months under $100? Where else can you truly practice a GREEN lifestyle (no packaging, no plastic bags, no manufacturing brand new items when there are thousands of gently used items perfectly great for your kids!)?

My other favorite part about starting JBF here in Tacoma is the Moms! As a new Mom myself (my first daughter is 20 months old), I value the connections I have made with Moms so far...and we haven't even met in person yet! I am looking forward to meeting thousands of Moms and families during the sale in April!
