Give a gift that keeps on giving

Whenever possible, we like to give useful gifts that last a long time. Herb plants, like the Rosemary Topiary, are perfect because they add beauty to every garden, while providing you with fresh herbs at your fingertips. The plant is also VeriFlora certified.

Eco-friendly flowers for the traditional mom

All of our flowers are certified VeriFlora and/or Organic. This means that they're grown with sustainable agricultural practices (growers use methods like fighting pests with beneficial insects like ladybugs as an alternative to spraying blooms with harmful pesticides). VeriFlora also protects the rights of growers by ensuring that they're paid a fair wage and provided a healthy working environment. We also offset every shipment from our warehouse to your home and ship all the flowers in our beautiful eco-packaging, so you know that we've made an effort to tread lighter on the planet at every step of the process.

* Note: We are working on offsetting shipments from our international growers to our warehouses (all shipments from the warehouse to the customer are already offset). If you want to make sure you're getting flowers that are eco-friendly from start to finish, we have some amazing bouquets grown in California that are shipped carbon free straight from the grower:

Every mom needs a break

Though it's great to pamper your mom with a trip to the spa, most people don't have the luxury of a local organic spa that uses products that are gentle on the skin. Enter the Lavender and Eucalyptus Spa Kit. It comes with everything you need to indulge yourself, and each item is infused with organic lavender and eucalyptus to soothe, rejuvenate and refresh. The best part is that you'll have everything on hand for the next time you're in need of an emergency relaxation session.

Sweet moms deserve sweet gifts

Who doesn't love cookies? Especially when they're certified organic and beautifully made? We've tried and tested these cookies (maybe one too many times) and the consensus is that they're amazingly delicious and iced to perfection. They also come in a re-usable tin so after you (I mean, Mom) devour all the goodies, you can try your hand at baking your own organic treats and house them in the tin.

For moms with gourmet tastes

Food and wine lovers will definitely appreciate the Ceago Wine Gift Set. Organic wine is something we've just started delving into and we have to say, Ceago's Sauvignon Blanc from Award-Winning Winemaker Jim Fetzer is among the best that we've tasted. Your mom will love this crisp, fruity wine produced from estate-grown organic and biodynamic grapes, and paired with sweet organic pears and salted organic pistachios.
