Sustainable Mothers’ Day!

What to get Mom? I was leery of ordering commercial flowers from who knows where, laden with who knows what kinds of chemicals… Bottom line: If you want to purchase something, go for sustainable, local products & services (ask your local florist about their organic/fair trade options or try a google search for local places).

While scouring the internet, I found several great places for organic/sustainable/fair trade flowers… take your pick:

Spring Creek Organic Farm
If you live in Plano, TX this woman is so sweet and responded quickly to my emails!
Contact Kari at:  kgatesscd@aol.com

Organic Bouquet
This online organic flower delivery & organic gifts site is great!

California Organic Flowers
All of their flowers are California-grown and certified organic!

FTD- Go Green Living
FTD has a fair trade section!

You could always give a gift card to a local service! I don’t know many women who aren’t dying for a professional massage (no offense men, your 5-minute massages are a nice quick relief, but we need at LEAST an hour massage)!

Alice Langford: Massage Therapist
She is a fantastic therapist, and the most reasonably priced that I’ve found here in El Paso.
