Thoughtful Gift Giving






Thoughtful Gift Giving
 Everywhere you look right now, you’ll find Eco-friendly gift products, but being green isn't just about buying post-consumer products or green gadgets. If you consider the distance the product has traveled and the potential waste that was generated to create the product you might want to reconsider.

Try your hand at a handmade gift… What could be more personal than something you've made? A holiday wreath decorated with birdseed, suet and fruit slices, is Eco-friendly,  and will sustain the little red cardinals and other birds throughout the  winter. Homemade cookies, breads and granola bars are a perfect gift for anyone. 

  Not a baker? Give the gift of time instead. Offer to someone with childcare, tasks around the house or get creative and lend your skills and talents to a project they’d love. It won’t cost a thing and may trump more expensive gifts you could ever think of to purchase.
