Founded in 2005, Plum Organics has been offering high quality health foods for newborns to grow up with for over 10 years. They believe the key to a healthy lifestyle is eating healthy right from the start.

Plum Organics believes that food should taste good, no matter what size your tastebuds are! Each product (either for babies, toddlers, and children) is made using only the freshest and purest vegetables, fruits, and grains. Plum Organics refuses to use any ingredients that aren’t certified organic and steers clear of all GMO’s. Their products are nutrient rich too, as Plum Organics understands that growing up requires a lot of energy! But why keep your child healthy if he or she doesn’t have a healthy planet to explore?

Plum Organics strives to leave a baby sized eco-footprint, focusing on reducing their impact on the environment by waste reduction and using less energy. B Corp certified, Plum Organics meets comprehensive standards based on social, environmental, and corporate responsibility. While their packaging may not be recyclable, it is still considered an eco-solution because it requires little time and energy to produce. Plum Organics may leave a small eco-footprint, but they are committed to leaving a giant impression on society.

Plum Organics’ program Full Effect is an initiative dedicated to fighting malnutrition, diabetes, obesity, and other childhood health problems Full Effect provides children across the country with healthy and nutritious food. Plum Organics also proudly partners with well known organizations like The March for Dimes, March for Babies, Healthy Child Healthy World, Baby Buggy, Stroller Strides, and Pregnancy Awareness Month to help ensure long and healthy lives for children all over the world.

    I enjoyed trying to keep up with all of the tweets. This was my first Twitter party, so I am not sure I did it right. Started off mostly reading lots of tweets, but then figured out how to reply, re-tweet, and participate. Even marked some of my favorites. It was nice to see ideas from eco minded people like me who don’t want to put poisons in our kids bodies. I thought it was fun!! Thanks for organizing this!!

Relax! It’s Monday

Mondays are tough. But, just because it is the start of the workweek, doesn’t mean you can’t pamper yourself! And what better way to do it than with natural ingredients free of harmful parabans? Plus, you can use the Green Halloween team favorite gourd, pumpkin! Rich in Vitamin A, these homemade beauty treatments will help you relax and let you concentrate on what an awesome eco-friendly Halloween you are going to have!

Pumpkin Mask

Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons canned pureed pumpkin
  • 1/2 teaspoon honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon heavy whipping cream
  • I recommend to use under eye masks

Directions

Mix all ingredients and apply to face. Leave on for 10 minutes and rinse. Voila! Smooth beautiful skin.

 

Pumpkin Exfoliant 

Ingredients

  • 1 small pumpkin
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup organic coconut oil (other oils can be used, but coconut oil is thicker than others at room temperature)
  • 1 Tbsp pumpkin pie spices (I combined cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and ginger)
Directions

Cut the pumpkin in half and remove the seeds (but save them to roast!). Roast pumpkin for 30 minutes or until tender. Canned pumpkin puree can also be used, but I prefer fresh. Scoop the pumpkin puree into a bowl and add the sugar, oil and spices. Mix well and jar. Yum! An exfoliant that smells like pie.
