NORFOLK, Va. - The holiday season is officially in full swing.
Thanksgiving marks the beginning of big family dinners, shopping, and elaborate decorations -- but all that activity comes with a price.
From Thanksgiving to New Years Day, household waste increases by more than 25 percent!
Amelia Baker from Green Alternatives in Norfolk joined us in the FOX43 studios this morning to help us start the holiday season on the right foot-- or should we say, the green foot!
You can visit Green Alternatives at their NEW store inside the fantastic Five Points Community Farm Market on Church Street in Norfolk.
