Holiday shopping - local and green!

Posted by kathleen in green gifts

I was thrilled yesterday to spend some time at the Phinney Neighborhood Center holiday gift and craft fair. These kinds of sales are the best way for people to get acquainted with local producers -- they are the "farmers markets" of ecobly businesses. Buying from these craftspeople is one way you can make it a "100-mile holiday" -- buying things made locally, from local materials. That's what ecobly is all about!

Save the planet - shop for recycled goods

Posted by kathleen in why ecobly?business news

Many ecobly companies make their products from our waste stream -- using recycled paper, glass and metal. Some take it a step further, like using old gold, worn out sweaters and tossed fur coats!

Everything we use can be repurposed or "upcycled" in some way. And these manufacturers are wringing every possible use out of our dumped stuff. But it won't help, if we don't buy it.
