Organic Bouquet
An eco-friendlier way to send flowers for Mother's Day.
Hello! 

Welcome to the second edition of the monthly Greenward newsletter! 
 
The response to the store has been great! To thank all of you for being so supportive, and to celebrate our success so far, we are throwing a store-warming party on Wednesday, May 30 from 6:00 to 9:00PM.  Join us for snacks, organic beer generously provided by Peak Organic Brewing Co., and 10% off all purchases during the shindig.

May comes with two big events in store for us: Mother's Day on May 13 and National Bike Month--because biking is the best way to travel year-round, but it's especially enjoyable in the springtime.  We've got some great things in stock for both moms and bicyclists.  Bicycling moms are in for a real treat!
 
Spotlight on...tranSglass

bambuBeak Vase

These striking vases would make a great match with some Mother's Day flowers from Organic Bouquet (even better - Danny Seo shows you how to make scented paper flowers from magazine perfume ads in Simply Green Parties. Page through it next time you're in.).

Designed by Tord Boontje and Emma Woofenden, tranSglass is part of the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art.  The pieces are produced from recycled wine, champagne, and beer bottles by La Casa Cotzal, a Guatemalen artisan group. 
 
 
Spotight on...Two Piglets

 Mother's Day unplugged

Two Piglets makes the cutest cards around, and we have some great ones for Mother's Day and for just about any other occasion.

Their letterpress cards are printed on 30% post-consumer recycled bristol board with soy inks.
 
 
 
May is Bike Month!

Abandoning your car for a bike is one of the best ways to reduce your impact on the environment, increase the quality of life in your neighborhood, and improve your health. Greenward has by far the hippest bicycling accessories in town. 

Don't believe us?  Check out this bike basket from Design House Stockholm (we have them in green, black, and white):

...and how about these bike bells?

...and these bike locks--they look like snakes! It's the best way to say "don't sssssteal my bike, jerk!"

Thanks so much to everyone for your help and support so far. We look forward to seeing you in the shop!

Look for details of our long-awaited (for us, at least) Grand Opening day in our June newsletter!

Sincerely,
Scott & Simone
