Saltwater Roots Boutique and Grass Roots Rescue hosted Tails & Ales March 4 at the Rehoboth Beach Convention Center, where attendees were able to browse through vendors while sipping a libation or glass of vino. The event was a fundraiser for Grass Roots Rescue, a foster-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit dog rescue that operates out of Delaware.

About 60 vendors displayed and sold their distinctive products to support the local canine rescue.

“The event went great,” said Karli Crenshaw, Grass Roots Rescue founder and executive director. “We love working with Saltwater Roots Boutique. Those ladies are incredibly generous and always do everything they can to help Grass Roots. We appreciate their support more than they know.”

Vendors include Peachy Keen Tees, Kim Johnson Photography, Mispillion Moon, Dorman’s Custom Apparel, Pampered Chef, Jenny Leigh Boutique, Henlopen Candles, Salty Sisters, Carrie Sue’s Cupcakery and Valhalla Studios 3D, among others.
