About Blood Drive

We Are Blood hosts a blood drive at The Great Outdoors with a bloodmobile parked out front. Donors get a free spooky Halloween t-shirt, a free Great Outdoors shirt, 10% off purchases, and drinks from Las Chuladas ATX.

At The Great Outdoors

A two-acre South Congress nursery that feels more like an urban garden escape, complete with live oaks, a working waterfall, and a giant wind chime you hear before spotting it. The 3,000-square-foot tropical greenhouse is packed with orchids and rare indoor exotics, and the Orchid Room alone is enough to tempt people already fully out of windowsill space.
