What if you could acquire the outdoor gear you need for your epic adventures without breaking the bank or contributing to the fast fashion and throwaway culture? Or what if you could declutter your closets and earn some cash for the gear you aren’t using? April Peterson, owner of River Rock Outfitter in Fredericksburg, shares why secondhand and consignment shopping isn't just trendy—it's a powerful way to reduce waste, support your local businesses, and adventure sustainably while also making the outdoors more accessible and affordable. April uncovers the etiquette of buying and selling pre-loved gear and provides tips for gifting used items, so your one-of-a-kind presents will be extra special. Discover unique treasures while keeping gear in the wild. Let’s Go!
