R.W. Knudsen is a juicy family and they’re giving a mom like me a sensible juice option for my children. An option that is USDA certified organic, with no added sugar (or [...]

One of the things that I miss when fall comes and winter is on the horizon, the fresh veggies from the local CSA and farmers market. Last year the local CSA provided a weekly newsletter with recipes and tips, it was so helpful. Through these newsletters I have learned:
Eggplant is a relative to potatoes, [...]

Is a Ford Flex the most eco-friendly car on the market? No. It isn’t a Hybrid but you might have read my thoughts on hybrids and wondering how green they really are. It does have the best gas mileage for a 7 passenger vehicle on the market right now, which is better then driving a [...]

Seventh Generation recently hosted a evening with Dr. Greene (love him) and the Environmental Working Group (love, love, love them) in Boston to talk about chemicals and our children. Talk about an important discussion. I sure wish I could have been there. No worries, I can watch the full WebCast and get the low down [...]

Blogher D.C. had ended. Dinner with Min Sook Lee was over. Tired, that explains how I was feeling. Except, I was only going to be able to talk with these women for a few short hours before I had to fly home to Michigan. I wanted to make the most of my time. Jennifer [...]
