Having two kids, and two dogs, and a whole lot of in and out foot traffic, I hate having carpet. It makes me feel grimy and dirty and it holds pet odors, dander and hair like crazy. Unfortunately, when we bought our house, 3,000 square feet of hardwoods were just not affordable. So, [...]

My green friends will all nod in agreement that making your own home cleaning products is a cinch… it’s just a matter of having a few items on hand. There are literally thousands of uses for the basics and it’s a worthy investment for those on any kind of a budget because a little will [...]

Eco-Easter: miYim Organic Bunnies

Despite refusing to sit on the Easter Bunny’s lap at a local mall (and frankly, I don’t really blame him), my son has become slightly obsessed with all things bunny-related lately. Aside from a few cookies, I’m planning on filling his Easter basket with some toys and books, and while I generally try to stay away from [...]

April Showers Bring PVC Free Rain Gear

We got an email from a reader last week asking about rain gear. I thought writing something up about it now at the beginning of Spring would be an appropriate time. Traditionally, raincoats and hats are made with a PVC outer shell. We try to avoid PVC for a multitude of reasons. Dioxins: PVC or [...]

Now that my 3 year old is in pre-school, finding safer school supplies and lunch items came to the forefront of my life. I didn’t want to become part of the giant pile of waste created by disposable lunch containers and wraps so I went on a hunt to find better solutions that wouldn’t be [...]

We’ve been getting a lot of emails regarding Method Baby products, since they were released last year. At least 3-4 a week. At first, we wanted to do a little more research on them, and then, as we discovered more about them, kept putting it off. But we can’t really hide behind the curtain anymore [...]

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle! One of the things that’s been a challenge for everyone is avoid excess plastic. I know for myself, I’ve been trying my best to buy things with less packaging or made with sustainable materials. But everyone knows, its tough to avoid plastic all together.
