Tree Hugging Family’s busy green autumn!

It’s going to be a super busy green autumn here at Tree Hugging Family. So you don’t feel lost here’s what’s coming up this September.

Tomorrow we’ll be finding out which three readers will be winning a copy of the DVD DisneyNature: Earth. If you haven’t entered yet skip over quick-like and do so because you’ve got until midnight tonight.

In the next couple of days I’ll also be kicking off an awesome giveaway event sponsored by one of my fave eco-art shops, INK + WIT – the prize is totally green and fab (you will LOVE it) so don’t miss it.

Other cool stuff happening:

Finishing up the Green Diapers 101: Eco-friendly Diaper Round-Up post that I started last week. By the end of the line-up you’ll have all the green diaper news you need to make a smart eco-diaper choice.

Hopefully some more news about the “is there a good recycled toilet paper out there” challenge. As I test brands I’ll post reviews, although since I’ve got a bunch of brands in mind this could take a while. Still, my plans include getting this going asap.

Green Halloween time is getting close so of course we’ll be looking at some spooky green tips and supplies.

A green challenge!

You may remember some of our previous challenges such as the Buy Nothing Day Challenge, the use fewer Paper Towels Challenge, and the wildly popular BYOB Challenge – the bring your own reusable bag challenge. In any case, we haven’t done a challenge in a while, so we’re due. Since I recently merged households with my boyfriend and his kiddos I was thinking that a green home audit challenge might be fun and useful for you and me. My son Cedar and me have been living green for Cedar’s whole life, but not perfectly of course; there have been major challenges, and stuff we miss, so we could always use another audit.

My boyfriend’s family does the basic stuff like recycling, but they don’t buy organic juice or milk, they use some questionable bathroom products (i.e. shampoo for kids with toxins) and have been used to living with paper towels and plastic PVC shower curtains which are off limits in my house. However, my boyfriend is not opposed to living green, and wants to learn more so an audit may be just the thing to get everyone on board and at the same level. I’ve been thinking about how to pull off a green home audit challenge, and once I fine tune the details, we’ll get started.

So you don’t miss any of this you may want to subscribe to Tree Hugging Family – it’s free to subscribe and a great way to keep up with new events, giveaways, and more. As always feel free to contact me with questions or comments about Tree Hugging Family as well.
