Bo's Blog — The "Eat More Kale" Guy

To those of you who have been meaning to order a shirt for the holidays but keep spacing…….GET ON IT!!!! Every year @ Dec. 19th I get a flood of emails asking ” is it too late to order?”. The answer will be ….”Yes you Dope, it’s too late”. I’m playing of coarse, I may not call you a Dope, but you know what I mean.
For the mean time we have PLENTY of time. Get your orders in SOON. Delivery time is @1.5 weeks lately. Keep in mind, I print these as you order. These shirts are not pulled off of a shelf and packaged like at AMAZON.com or Walmart.com.
I can’t thank you all enough for all of the interest and all of the orders all ready. I hope you like my shirts, because I love printing them for you. We have plenty of time, let’s GET ON IT. YEHAWWWW.

You can find my adult short sleeve organic Eat More Kale shirts at Riverwalk Records in lovely downtown Montpelier, Vt.. Also, if you are in Shelburne Falls, Mass., check out my shirts at my in-laws leather shop…DICK MULLER AND Co.. It’s a fancy shop, but don’t be intimidated…the folks inside are easy ( and their handmade leather goods are too nice for me to describe, you’ll have to check it out). Look for them soon in Birmingham, Alabama @ Nomad Supply. Contact me if you want these in your store too.

I saw Alejandro Escoveda and his group last night at The HigherGround in Burlington, Vt.. It was the most rocking “sit down” show I’ve ever seen. So rocking that I actually could not sit during the whole show. He’s lived in Ca. and Texas and has been playing music since the 70’s. I could go on and on, but I won’t. Just do yourself a favor……..Listen to some Alejandro. Download it, buy it, youtube it, borrow it…..whatever….just do it. Later you’ll come back to me and say something like ” Dude, how could I have gone so long without listening to that?” Or maybe you’ll say.. “Duh…Dude, I’ve been listening to him since the 70’s”. Whatever. Run along now, get some new music. Thank me later.

Here’s the deal: I really want your opinion. Do you think it is cool for other people to print their own “Eat More Kale” shirts to sell or promote online? Do you think it would be cool of me to make shirts that say “Life Is Good”? ( I’m not going to of coarse, just wondering) Please take the time to get back with me on this if you have an opinion. Of coarse I have my own, but I need to hear from wide array of people. Please leave a comment, or email me. Thanks for your time and I value your opinion ( possibly). Bo, the “Eat More Kale” guy

Are you a LOCALVORE? Do you do your best to eat goods produced within 100 miles of your home? Do you prefer a farmer’s market to Wal-Mart? Do you buy t-shirts from artist in Vermont or the GAP? I’ll soon be offering a “LOCALVORE” t-shirt on my site. If you want one now, just contact me through my site. Easy Cheesy. Support local stuff. LOCALVORE*localvore*Localvore*LOCALvore*

******* OFFER OVER*********( I’ve had @15 people from here there and everywhere accept a shirt in return for spreading the “Eat More Kale” word. Thanks to each and everyone of you)
My “Street Team” rocks. Look for my stickers to start showing up everywhere!!!!!!

Do you want to become part of my “street team”? I need you to hand out/ post on bulletin boards etc. @60 “EAT MORE KALE.com” stickers around your home town/ farmers market/ co-op/school/ dorm/ office/ commune/ cave/ campsite etc etc etc. ( I don’t mean for you to stick them all over other’s property!!!!) In addition I hope you’ll wear your shirt and talk it up. Dig? If you’ll promise not to space and loose them or throw them away or stick them in your little box of “do dads” and forget them……… I’ll send you about 60 bumper stickers with an Eat More Kale shirt. You tell me your size and if you prefer a men’s to a women’s style. I’ll choose the color and send it to you right away. Now there is a catch. I need you to live someplace other than Montpelier, Vermont. That’s where I live and I already hand out stickers like candy on Halloween (everyday). Help me spread the word to the world about my little ol’ website and my hand-printed t-shirts. Free is Fun. This is a limited time offer. Those who motivate….celebrate.

I’ve finally added ORGANIC COTTON SHIRTS AND ONESIES to my website. As of Monday the 24th of Sept., only the men’s short sleeve organic is available. But the Ladies, Youth and Infant clothes are coming within days. ( I’ve got my team of computer experts working on it….Michael) These shirts are heavy duty and SOFT. Plus they are grown and sewn in the U.S.. Tell your friends that I’ve gotten off of my ass and am finally offering ORGANIC SHIRTS. I’ll still offer locally dyed Comfort Colors, the heaviest duty t-shirt made. Now you have choices. Yeeehaw.

Do you want a free t-shirt. I’m going to give 10 “EAT MORE KALE” shirts to 10 people in 1 month. (@ Sept. 23rd) What I would like in exchange is: your best idea to help “spread the word” about my t-shirts and my little ol’ website. At the end of the month, my wife and I will choose the 10 most creative/ cheap/ practical/ green methods. Think about it, then lay it on me baby.

I hope to see you at the greatest folk festival in the northeast. This fest is easy and fun. What a party. Come by and check out my newest designs. Many aren’t shown anywhere on my site. I look forward to meeting you. Bring something to trade for shirts…if you want. Home-brewed, hand-sewn, home-grown…whatever.
