Charitable Gifts, Cuenca, Organic Home

This gift guide will give you great ideas for your fellow tree-hugging, earth loving, eco-friendly friends. Be glad that you have a tree-hugger friend, for it is the tree-huggers that will pave the way to a better future for all of us. I’ve done some research on environmentally friendly products to purchase over the internet. I’ve found quite a list of companies that over eco-friendly products such as clothing, recycled goods, organic foods, vegan foods, charitable gifts, and more.

1. Tree hugger t-shirt

This is a classic gift to give, that will say you appreciate their eco-friendly attitude and support their beliefs. This t-shirt has an artistic flare with a design of trees and text that says Trees are cool. This is a good gift for the tree-hugging friends that you don’t really know that well.

2. Recycled tree hugger journal

Turtle Arts created this durable journal that contains 120 pages. The pages are made with 100% post consumer recycled paper that is acid free. This recycled tree hugger journal makes a perfect gift for artists and writers.

3. Maple leaves and gingerbread acorns by Dancing Deer Baking Co.

Tasty treats are always a good choice when it comes to gift giving. Dancing Deer Baking Company offers a variety of tasty treats that are made with only vegan ingredients. Maple leaves and gingerbread acorns comes with four individually wrapped maple-shaped cookies. Your tree-hugging friend will receive 80 leaf-shaped cookies with organic ingredients.

4. Tree-hugger silicone bracelet

When you purchase one of these green bracelets with the words “tree hugger”, you will be planting a tree to help provide sanctuaries to monarch butterflies and helping to clean the air we breathe. You can give this gift to your tree-hugger friend and let them know that your purchase has planted a tree in order to help the environment. This is a great charitable gift.

5. Aromatherapy misters

Give the gift of scent, with one of these organic home sprays made with pure essential aromatherapy oils. Choose from one of these natural fragrances : lavender, tangerine grapefruit, patchouli sweet orange, cinnamon ylang ylang, comforting vanilla, jasmine and rose. These aromatherapy misters are not tested on animals and have no synthetic preservatives, color or fragrances.

6. Garden in a bag

Not everyone has the right hand in gardening. I for one am not very good at keeping my plants alive. This is where a “garden in a bag” comes in handy. It makes a great accent to your kitchen, and is basically fool proof. “Gardens in a bag” come with an enclosed tin of seed, that comes with soil that you mix together. The plant will then start to grown straight out of the bag. Choose from basil, oregano, chives, Italian parsley, alpine strawberry, mini tomato, or lavender.

7. 100% organic sheet set

I was surprised to see that Wal-Mart now offers 100% organic sheet sets for your bed. Your tree-hugging friends will appreciate this luxurious gift. They can sleep well, knowing that they are sleeping on pesticide-free sheets that were grown under the USDA certified organic standards.

8. Little earth world purse

This is the cutest gift, for the all around artistic kind of earth loving friends that you have. This purse is made with a bottle cap closure, recycled rubber handle, and comes with a certificate of authenticity. You can choose from six different countries. I personally like the world purse with the British flag on it. What a great gift, and if you hurry they are on sale right now.
