HAPPY EARTH DAY


Welcome back to the Milk Crate, and Happy Earth Day. I'm not going to make this a long entry, but just wanted to remind everyone what Earth Day is all about. Earth Day is a day to remind everyone what their responsibility is to the planet. The Earth has given us everything that we have, and will give us everything that we will have. The only problem is, it's been a one way street as far as most are concerned. We have done nothing to give back to the Earth all that we have taken from it, and Earth Day is a day to remember that. If you see a piece of trash on the ground today, pick it up. If you see someone about to throw a glass or plastic bottle away, remind them to recycle it. Don't squander the gifts that Mother Nature has provided for us all. Instead of picking a flower today, plant one. Instead of take out food sold in non-biodegradable containers, buy yourself some fresh fruits and vegetables. Instead of driving around wasting gas today, take a stroll and enjoy the Spring air.
Earth Day only comes once a year, folks, but Vermont Woods Studios is committed to making every day one where we fulfill our commitment to the planet's continued health. All of our furniture is made from wood harvested here in the United States, using sustainable forestry practices. Going "green" is something that all companies seem to be working towards nowadays. We started as a "green" company, and are proud to continue to offer only "green" products, made by local craftspeople.
Enjoy Earth Day, everyone, from all of us here at VWS. Until next time, this is Brian M. signing off. Time for our corporate wellness walk around lovely Vernon, Vermont. I wonder what great discounts we'll dream up on this walk. Check back to find out !
