Yep!  Shop Whole Foods this holidays for green gifts!  It might just be easier to park, easier to check out PLUS you will find the best eco-friendly finds!

Just one of the many eco-friendly & natural lines that Whole Foods carries is Maggie’s Organics. They specialize in organic cotton clothing and fair trade clothing.

Wholefoods and Maggie’s Organics sent me this gorgeous scarf to review.  It is a little lighter in weight, which makes it a great accessory piece. It does perform at keeping me warm, but probably won’t be my go to when fridgid January weather comes around and leaves me with 13 degree highs!  But for 30 degrees and up it is great!

Organic Cotton Scarf

Organic Cotton Scarf

I have the Plum colored Organic Cotton Scarf, on the far right.  It really is gorgeous.  The design is very subtle and adds fun flair with out being gaudy.  Maggie’s extra long scarf is a soft, light weight ,100% Certified Organic Cotton Jersey and the print is made with water-based printing.  ($13)

I also received these fun, colorful, Organic Cotton Socks from Maggie’s.  I love color.  I can’t deny that, and sometimes in the winter I have to get it color where wear I can!  I look to my socks for color.

Organic Cotton Socks Crew Tri-pack

Organic Cotton Socks Crew Tri-pack

I have the Eggplant, Goldenrod and Teal, which is the very top left.

This socks are nice and thick, but not so thick my shoes don’t fit!  Really cushioned and the top actually stays put, without cutting off my circulation! I realized a few years ago, that a sock is not a sock.  I was dating a guy that only wore SmartWool and after wearing his socks one time, I now search out GOOD socks!   89% Certified Organic Cotton, 10% Nylon, 1% Spandex  ($19)

Zum soap Mint_PeppermintZum soap Mint_Spearmint

Whole Foods also sent me a couple bars of ZUM! Soap to try out.  Zum Soaps puts out special Holiday Flavors and the two I received are: Mint Peppermint and Mint Spearmint.  These are Goat’s Milk Soap, which happens to be my very favorite!  They are bursting with the minty scents and leave me nice and cool and completely refreshed.  A really nice pick me up on sluggish days.  And trust me, I have had a few of those lately!  Only $6!  And sold at Whole Foods and Online at Zum Soaps only!

Today I have a giveaway brought to us by Maggie’s Organics!  Maggie’s would like to treat one Prissy Green reader to the set i received!  The Organic Cotton Plum Scarf and the Organic Cotton Tri-pack of Crew Socks!  I also happen to have an extra soap so the winner will also receive a Mint Peppermint Zum Soap from yours truly!  This package is worth almost $40!  If you win you can keep it or give it as a gift!
