Its that time of season, and what better way to give someone a lasting, memorable christmas gift than to give them an eco friendly gift. Everyone knows what state the planet is in, and I’m sure most people worry about their impact on the environment. I’ve bumbled around the web and found some pretty neat green gifts and eco friendly presents for those near and dear.
Have a look at the Green and Eco Friendly Christmas List for some ideas:
1. Jump Start Lighting System – For the home gardener, you can now have year round culinary herbs with this great, compact indoor garden. Complete light system for seedlings and indoor plants. Jumpstart your indoor-planted seedlings with Jump Start Light System! It provides seedlings, houseplants, and indoor flowers with the full spectrum of light, ensuring that photosynthesis takes place so plants grow healthy and strong.
2. Seed Sprouter – Healthy and fun, seed sprouting is a great way to get your kids to start eating veggies, and they get to grow their own sprouts in the process!! Harvest fresh sprouts in 2-7 days with our two-tiered seed sprouter! Easy-to-use sprouter allows for easy viewing and monitoring of seeds and sprouts. This sprouter has enough room to grow several different kinds of sprouts at once. Wash by hand.
3. Shitake Mushroom Kit Kit Grow your own gourmet mushrooms with this neat kit. A favorite for stir-fries! New! These are the dark, richly-flavored mushrooms (also known as Japanese forest mushrooms) used in Oriental cuisine. Very high in vitamins, too! Soak kit in water, cover with the humidity tent (included), then begin picking delicious, fresh mushrooms in about 10 days! Yields 2-5 pounds over a 15-week period.
4. Compost Tumbler – perfect for the gardening enthusiast. There truly is nothing like creating your own compost and raising a wonderful garden of delicious, organic vegetables in your yard. This composter is petite and easy to turn. It has good ground clearance to help with emptying the composted material. It features a sliding door that will help to seal in all the decomposing materials. This composter is very easy to set up.
5. Common Birds of North America and Garden Butterflies of North America are two great books to help further explore what lives in your garden. You’d be surprised what you don’t often notice!
6. A Sundial could be just the thing to spruce up your mothers garden, or your sisters backyard patio!
