Longfellow Sun, 24 Feb 2008 17:54:00 +0000 http://www.greenandcleanmom.org/2008/02/be-an-ecomom-like-me/#comment-77 Great Blog and great article. Congratulations on the feature. I love your blog. I try my best to be Eco friendly, from the diapers I choose, cloth and when using disposables using Seventh Generation and dumping the poop in the potty (I get strange looks when I do this in public), to buying local or organic foods, using bio friendly cleaners, and paintin the nursery with low VOC paint. Also, we have low wattage light bulbs, are careful about water usage, and run what we can off of solar. <br/>This is not for for the benefit of the earth(but that is a nice benefit too), but so that children and grandchildren have a livable and beautiful world. <br/>Thanks for spreading the word and informing people of the many choices that are out there. Being kinder to our environment doesn't have to be hardship or lots of work. It can be easy and save you money in the long run. Great Blog and great article. Congratulations on the feature.

I've been working on that for forty years and now that it's mainstream, I couldn't be happier. I wanted to let your readers know about my 'green' resource guides that I'm just getting going. The first out is "California Healthy, Southern California Edition," (part of my America Healthy Series) that showcases all of the healthy places to eat and walk, including superfood recipes by a Stanford Executive Chef and exercise tips by a certified exercise physiologist. You can be a localvore, save money and be proud of it! See at www.America-Healthy.com<br/>Patricia Hi,

I was so enthusiastic about mom's caring that I wrote an eco-farming story for kids and their parents to share learning what one farmer did with cow poop to save the environment. Maybe you can help me spread the news><br/>http://crissythecowpot.blogspot.com<br/>Nina Glad to see so many are going Green.

One way our family has really cut down on our household waste has been with cloth diapering. We're making much less trash since we started cloth diapering. One of our favorite sites is http://www.bodaciousbabies.com They sell all kinds of natural products for the kids and the home, including cloth diapers, lead-free toys, and recycleable shopping bags.<br/><br/>Congrats again!

I look forward to reading more of your blog--saw the link in the NYT article. I am curious about how you are doing with a vegetarian baby--or have you gone all the way to being vegan? No ecomom could eat meat. The little shoes are great too. Nice alternative to leather. It’s great there is a such a movement among new families.
