Holiday Green Tip

There is a big part of us that wants to say you should forgo the urge to update your friends and family each holiday season with Christmas (or Festivus) cards and letters because of the unnecessary paper waste that will inevitably end up in landfills and the elimination of trees that is caused by such actions, but with fresh snow on the ground and the palpable sense of Christmas spirit abound, we instead will provide you what we think is a responsible alternative.

Right in our own back yard, mygoodgreetings.com is designing custom photo cards, invitations and stationary printed on 100% recycled, carbon neutral paper which is Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified. Not only will you be choosing a sustainable product but you will be shopping locally, in turn drastically reducing shipping impact on one end of the equation, and of course supporting a local business.
