When I was a sophomore in college, I wrote a research paper on organic farming. I became quite passionate about both organic farming and taking care of the resources that we have. I’ve been inspired to go papertowel-less, so when our paper towels are gone, they are gone. {Sorry, honey!}
We should do everything we can to protect the earth’s resources. The basis for my position on being a good steward of our planet is this:
“The earth is the LORD’s, and the fulness thereof” Psalm 24:1
Ultimately because I love God and I believe that He created our world, I want to take care of the wonderful resources that He has given us. Anyway, that’s my position on “Earth Day” which is right around the corner on Thursday, April 22nd! {ahem}
When My Blog Spark contacted me to do a review of Green Giant, I jumped at the opportunity! We love Green Giant frozen vegetables! When they are on sale and I have coupons, I always stock up. The Green Giant Frozen Sugar Snap Peas are our favorite.
On top of having awesome food products, Green Giant is always finding ways to care for the environment, including:
- Switching to more earth-friendly paperboard to package frozen vegetables
- Packing vegetables in smaller, lighter cans, so it takes less fuel to deliver them to supermarket shelves
- Teaming up with growers to install a more efficient irrigation system that can reduce water use by more than a million gallons a year.
Green Giant is currently working to encourage greener farming practices near the Root River, one of Minnesota’s best trout streams. I’m thankful for Green Giant’s efforts in sustainability.
Green Giant and My Blog Spark, sent me this fabulous “Seeds of Change” gift pack including a : re-usable grocery bag, a set of three bamboo utensils (LOVE these!), a coupon for free Green Giant frozen veggies and a mini herb garden!
I love my mini herb garden! My brown thumb hasn’t killed the seeds off yet. All three herbs are coming up and I’m very excited!
I also have a gift pack to give away!

We have a reusable “recycle bag” on the door of our kitchen that leads outside. We fill it up with paper and plastic then bring it out to the recycle bin once it is full. It surprises me how packed our recycle bin can get with every other week pickup!

I know this is horrible, but I grew up on Green Giant Corn Frozen in Butter Sauce. I know. Loaded with fat. What can I say!?!
We have salvaged wood from a friends torn down deck and fill from a construction job listed as free online. Hubby is going to make planter boxes, and I am seeking heirloom seeds for our vegetables! I am excited.

I love the Green Giant snap peas!
I am trying to make our household more green, I keep reusable grocery bags in my car & use them everywhere I go. I also started sneaking them into my boyfriends routine. Instead of him taking a plastic lunch bag with him to work I now put his lunches & extra stuff for work in the reusable bags. Its saved us from hundreds of plastic grocery bags.
