A while back I posted on Gerber and BPA and admittedly, I was confused and disappointed but I my opinion, concern and [...]

It’s the weekend and we’ve had some heated discussions going on here at G&CM. Father’s Day is around the corner (yikes, I’m not ready) and I thought I’d just lighten up the load by giving you a few fun blog posts to check out this weekend. Through my recent twittering I’ve come across some great [...]

Unless you buy your BPA free products online or write down exactly what the product is you’re looking for AND print out a picture, it’s confusing. I know because just tonight I tried to go the store and find a particular BPA free product and for the life of me couldn’t find it or remember [...]

My daughter and son were both Gerber babies. They ate the baby food, drank the juice, had the cups, and tried all the toddler foods when they came out. Gerber’s a Michigan company and I’m from Michigan, so I felt a little bit of loyalty. When the Gerber organics came out, I was over the [...]

I wanted to pass this very appropriate and timely email on to all of you green mommies. A new friend of mine, Monica, so graciously sent this to me. Moms we have power and together we are even more powerful, so lets fight this BPA war and win! No more BPA…enough is enough!
Please join me [...]

First [...]

As a Green and Clean mom, you would think I drink a ton of water. Seeing that I have a new water bottle I should be consuming tons of it. What do you actually know about water? Did you know that 70% of your body is made of water? How about that your hair, [...]

You might not know this but I’m actually a maize and blue fan, verses a green fan! Go WOLVERINES!!! This actually ties into my post because an outstanding company you know as Stonyfield Farm (no “e” after “n” or before “y”… I can spell) works with the University of Michigan’s Center for Sustainable Systems to [...]
