The Ultimate Green Store.com and The Family Groove.com Team Up to Spoil Moms Green This Earth Month

April 20, 2010 – TheUltimateGreenStore.com (TUGS) and TheFamilyGroove.com (TFG) are giving moms, both online and offline, the gift of green this Earth Month. With a Green On the Go giveaway valued at over $300 and including everything from organic sunscreen to an ultra-hip solar backpack, TUGS is spoiling TFG’s online audience of over 150,000 with the gift of green and giving TFG’s 4,000-plus moms’ groups members a gaggle of green-chic goodies, too.

But the giving doesn’t stop there! TUGS founder, green lifestyles expert and published author Laura Meyer is giving TFG readers a word to the eco-wise each month with the launch of her new column “Living the Green Life.”

“Moms want green, baby. From organic onesies to cloth diapers to BPA-free bottles to low-VOC paints to chemical-free weed killer and back again, moms today will not stand for toxins in their environment. Period. Even in this down economy, our readers are choosing organic in record numbers and seeking out easy and fun ways to go green and stay green. The synergy between TheUltimateGreenStore.com and TheFamilyGroove.com is palpable—we’ve got the moms; they’ve got the green. Best part about TUGS: They’re demystifying the whole environmentally-conscious thing and making it mainstream, accessible and affordable, while still managing to keep it chic and cool. As budding eco-warriors ourselves, we’re honored to deliver such an important message to women everywhere,” say TFG Editor-in-Chief Jillian Swartz.
