The series of Harvest Balls first began as a tour up the coast of California in celebration of the North Coast 'harvest' and served to acknowledge what it truly means to be abundant in life. With the world feeling the effects of massive consumption of natural resources, the Harvest Ball’s goal is to share the message of environmental consciousness by inspiring communities to wake up and plug into simple ways of saving the environment.
