Our Family of Shops...

Oak
(short for "one of a kind"), a bright new boutique off
Newbury that specializes in handmade goods, isn't your grandma's - or
even your big sister's - crafts fair. Keara Sexton, a tenacious
20-year-old, who grew up at Mother & Child, and whose entrepreneurial spirit sprang into high gear with
this venture, sells the work of designers so unbelievably talented,
you'll do a double take when you discover they're handmade.

New Products News
GDiaper
gDiapers loves the Earth.
For the last 40 years there have been but two choices in diapers. Cloth
or disposable. That's it. Now gDiapers offers a third option.
Flushable. gDiapers puts waste where it belongs, in the toilet. Not the
landfill.
gDiapers have no elemental chlorine, no perfumes, no smell, no garbage
and no guilt. In fact, flushables are so gentle on the Earth you can
even garden compost the wet ones in one compost cycle, approximately 50
- 150 days. Just think of the standing ovation you'll get from the
planet.
Note: several of you have asked us to carry those adorable multi-colored gDiaper covers that you have seen in magazines. Well, they are not yet available to retailers. We have the starter kits and the refills in stock (a new shipment is due any day) but you'll have to get the covers directly from gDiapers for now.
W S Badger: A wonderful, NH company
Take care of your skin naturally with high-quality, all natural Sun
protection! Badger SPF is highly
rated for safety and effectiveness by the Environmental Working Group! You'll find it at the top of the chart! Please also check out Badger's Sunscreen FAQs for more information on Sun protection, SPF ratings, and ingredient safety.
Badger's UVA protection is fantastic regarding both the
SPF 30 and SPF 15 products! A "Critical Wavelength" measurement of 370
nm is considered to be outstanding - Badger SPF30 is 377nm and Badger
SPF15 is 376nm.
note: we have not been able to get the SPF 30 as Badger has been out of stock. We do expect it to arrive soon, however.
A message from Badger:
"We never use chemicals, preservatives, synthetics,
GMO's or any of the other bad stuff that you read so much about. Badger
ingredients are as close to their natural source as we can get and they
are rich in complex vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and anti-oxidants. You
can feel, sense and smell the difference.

Green Lifestyle -
Replace your sponge and use the sponge instead of a paper towel.
weekly ideas for making small changes that make a difference
Making a sponge is a very challenging process, and one that only a
handful of producers undertake. Cellulose sheets (100% tree fiber) are
mixed with cotton and heated into a liquid that is poured into large
molds. Adjusting the salt particles added to the mix creates those
familiar holes. The mix is then dried as a giant block, sliced into
various shapes, rinsed sparkling clean, combined with an antibacterial
agent, and finally packaged. This process can lead to a lot of waste.
Billions of sponges are produced every year. An industry that big has
an impact on the world around it.
At TWIST, they
take special care to make sure 99.97% of all our waste is reused in
production. Also, their cellulose is sourced from renewable tree farms. They are committed to continually improving their production process to
minimize their effect on the environment.and... their package contains instructions for turning the package into a bird feeder!
Twist sponges are available at 1 World Trading Co.
