INSTINCTIVEGREATGREENGOODS
We’re introducing a new advertiser on GreatGreenGoods today …and we are so happy to have them! If you looking for a good looking bag that is also eco-friendly, you can’t go wrong with a bag from instinctive. They are made with recycled materials (the main body fabric, the polyester webbing and the plastic buckles are all recycled) and they are manufactured in a Fair Labor Association and Social Accountability International approved factory. What separates instinctive from the pack is that they have a lifetime “Takeback” policy….which means that if you want a new look, you can return your bag for repair or replacement.

Recycled Fiber Fabric Pots

Tuesday, August 28th, 2007

recycled flower pots
We love them because they are made from recycled plastic fibers, but you’ll love them because they are great for your plants providing proper soil aeration and optimal growing conditions. (plants don’t dry out too fast like clay pots or too slow like plastic, since it can’t breathe) If you want to repot? You can just “unzip” the pot and transplant to your heart’s content. Easy to clean and reuse.
Available in two different shapes and three different fabrics. The pot on the left measures 7.5“ tall, 8.5“ in diameter at the bottom and 6.75“ at the top. The product on the right is 7” tall and 8.5” in diameter.
$40.00 for left pot, and $30.00 for right pot at Hova Design

Coffee Paper Notebooks

Write in your diary and save the rainforest at the same time!! Well, maybe the world is a bit more complicated, but a movement is growing where agro-industrial fibres from the waste of processing common agricultural products are used to manufacture paper. When processing coffee: the peels, the leaves and small beans are separated from the coffee, all of which is used to manufacture the coffee paper. Research and Development is working on studying new fibres from pineapple, orange and palm hearts.
