Clean Green with EcoStoreUSA
EcoStore was founded in New Zealand with the premise of creating products containing "no nasty chemicals".
Their products are so wonderful and became so popular they branched out and have a US location in Michigan.
They've even partnered with Michigan based Meijer stores to create a special selection of ecostore USA household and baby care products that are available exclusively at Meijer stores throughout the Midwest. These exclusive ecostore products are available at all 185 Meijer locations.
Two of my favorite ecostore USA products are the All Purpose Cleaner and the Laundry Liquid.
The All Purpose Cleaner is safe to use, non-toxic and cleans fabulously- what more could you ask for? How about a pleasant slightly citrus aroma? I love it, no toxic fumes, no nasty chemicals- just natural yet powerful cleaning performance. This stuff will clean just about anything- counters, sinks, walls, toilets, tubs, stoves, appliances, even stains on furniture and carpets. I've used it for everything.
The Laundry Liquid is divine. I love the spicy clean aroma of the 100% Certified Organic Eucalyptus oil. It is so much better than the non-smell some "natural" laundry liquids have. I hate the smell of "unscented"- I know sounds odd but the non-smell has a distinct unpleasant smell all its own. I prefer herbal scents over non-scents or fancy perfumes any day. The other thing that's wonderful about the ecostore Laundry Liquid is that it cleans great and a little goes a long way.

Eco-Friendly Clogs by Okabashi
Say hello to the 100% recyclable shoe.
The Okabashi Clog is an eco-aware, vegan friendly shoe that is 100% recyclable. Made with 30% recycled content this is the must have shoe for fall.
Pair it with jeans, skirts, dresses-anything.
And the most fabulous part?
They are only $14.99.
Now that's an eco-steal.
Check out some of the great features of the Okabashi clog: 100% recyclable made with 30% recycled materials, the clogs are supportive containing a massaging insole that helps relieve foot and back pain, the clogs are guaranteed for 2 years, they are made in the USA (in Buford, Georgia), the clogs are dishwasher-safe and completely machine washable (shoes in the dishwasher? Odd), the clogs are antimicrobial and odor resistant (that's a great shoe feature is it not), they are anti-slip and completely water proof which means they will not change shape or fade. The Okabashi clogs are even endorsed by the American Chiropractic Association (ACA).

Back to school with ecopaper
Looking for eco-friendly back to school supplies?
If so then be sure to check out ecopaper.com for their great selection of tree free papers made from bananas, coffee, mangoes, lemons, tobacco and more.
Yes, that’s right they have tree free paper made from all kinds of wonderful agricultural products that are often discarded during manufacturing of other products.
Ecopaper uses agro-industrial fibers that come from the waste of processing bananas, coffee and tobacco. Their research and development department is currently studying new fibers from pineapple, orange and palm hearts and researching the possibilities of using these materials for paper making.
The industrial process leaves behind a lot of waste. The packing of bananas pulls apart the bunches of bananas from the main stem which leaves the pinzote left over. The pinzote contains 5% of usable fiber that becomes paper through Ecopaper’s processes.
The processing of coffee leaves behind the waste of peels, leaves and small beans that are separated from the coffee that will be turned into drinking products. The waste materials are used to manufacture their coffee paper.
Blogfest is Now Closed
