5 Green Gift Ideas for Mother's Day
Make your mom proud by celebrating Mother's Day with environmentally responsible gifts.
Ecofriendly Indulgences: Treat your mom to ethical chocolate and wine that'll keep her taste buds and conscience happy. Check out Sierra magazine's top picks for artisanal, organic, and fair-trade chocolates and our experts' recommendations for sustainable wines.
Perfect Plants: Organic, fair-trade bouquets are an instant pick-me-up, but potted plants look just as good, last longer, and improve air quality.
A Year of Fresh Fruit: If your mother enjoys cooking with seasonal ingredients, treat her to a year of locally raised fruits and veggies. Contact a local CSA farm to make your mom a member.
The Gift of Time: Skip the stuff and give your overworked mom a break by volunteering to run errands (on your bike, of course), prepare a healthy dinner, or tend the garden.
A Piece of the Planet: Help the Sierra Club protect the planet by becoming a member. Joining the Sierra Club helps support our campaigns so we can explore, enjoy, and protect the planet.
