Tuesday's Green Tip - Review and Giveaway

CONTEST CLOSED! THANK YOU TO ALL WHO ENTERED!

Hello and welcome to this weeks Tuesday's Green Tip. This week I am doing a review and give away of Seventh Generation "Living Home Starter Kit".

I was so excited when this arrived on my doorstep, I am a huge fan of Seventh Generation's products. We use their laundry soap, dish soap, dish detergent and several of their paper products but I had never tried any of their house hold cleaners until now.





The "Living Home Starter Kit" includes everything you need to clean your bathroom, kitchen and all glass surfices.

Ruby Grapefruit & Herb Natural Glass and Surface Cleaner
Green Mandarin and Leaf Natural All-Purpose Cleaner
Emerald Cypress and Fur Tub and Tile Cleaner
Green Mandarin and Leaf Shower Cleaner
Emerald Cypress and Fur Toilet Bowl Cleaner
Wild Orange and Cedar Spice Kitchen Cleaner
2 Rolls of Natural Paper Towels
Seventh Generation Tote

My expectations were high and they were exceeded! All of the products work beautifully and smelled so delicious. My children even thought they smelled good and of course because they are from Seventh Generation they are 100% natural!

From their web site:

Seventh Generation is committed to becoming the world's most trusted brand of authentic, safe, and environmentally-responsible products for a healthy home. For 20 years, the closely held Burlington, Vermont-based company has been at the forefront of a cultural change in consumer behavior and business ethics.

The company derives its name from the Great Law of the Iroquois that states, "In our every deliberation, we must consider the impact of our decisions on the next seven generations." Every time you use a Seventh Generation product you are making a difference by saving natural resources, reducing pollution, keeping toxic chemicals out of the environment and making the world a safer place for this and the next seven generations.

Now...for the good news.... Seventh Generation is giving one of my readers their very own "Living Home Starter Kit"!
