The Green Parent Weekly Roundup
The Green Week
This week’s roundup of green parenting stories from around the greenosphere:
- A new site called Green Phone Booth launched this week and really hit the ground running with a post that gives the lowdown on toxins in toys.
- Crunchy Chicken reposted an oldie but a goodie that shows how to make your own yogurt. A great idea for those who love yogurt but hate the cost/non-recyclable waste of the store-bought variety.
- Anna Hackman, the blogger behind Green Talk, made the news for the recent green bar mitzvah she threw for her son. Mazel Tov!
- The Green Parent made the news as well in an interview I did on green parenting while speaking at the Evanston (Illinois) Green Living Festival.

How about some chocolate? Yeah, I thought that might get your attention. Thanks to the lovely folks at

I know because I tasted some of Divine’s chocolates and I can honestly assure you that their name hardly does them justice. Wanna treat yourself to some eco-savvy chocolately goodness?

YUM-O!!! I have a huge sweet tooth or should I say I have sweet teeth, so this giveaway would be amazing. I just can’t get enough of chocolate:) And I love that this chocolate is fair trade, which I find hard to come across.
Interesting. I used to live in Evanston some years ago, I’m not sure they had the green festival back then. I’m happy to hear that they have it now! Congrats on making the news!
always up to try new chocolate companies, especially when they are helping other places!! thanks for all the great websites to visit! you are the BEST!
Green Bat Mitzvah? Cool!
I have been looking for ways to be “greener” and reading all the blogs give me great ideas. Lot’s of new products coming on line – I love Chocolate!
