There are, obviously, certain places, and certain folks, that are more educated in the knowledge of buying eco and organic... but it is not so much of a "lifestyle" as, for example, in California. Our business started as an "eco-everything" department store over 15 years ago, and within the first year we became a mail order catalog. Why? Because we are based out of Virginia, and most of our customers are West Coast or Northeast and New England. BUT, we have defintitely noticed a BIG difference in the last decade. We now have local customers who actually know what the word organic means! Little steps can make a big difference. Hopefully, with all the information about environmentally-smart choices, more and more people will begin to embrace the ideals and benefits they can contribute to make our world a better place. We shall see, I guess. Go Solar! So Wind! Go Organic! It's awesome. :-) -c Unfortunately, being “green” is not as common on the east coast… especially depending on where you are!

I did find some small havens of green-ness after I wrote this post and it will make some good blog entries in the coming days. Thanks all! Thanks everyone for your comments, appreciate them.

This landlocked midwest has very little interest in "being green". I am seen as a Little Green Alien each time I take reusable bags to the store. Hear ye, hear ye!
