Plants – Let Your Love Growing

You can’t go wrong with a bouquet of flowers that are grown sustainably in farms. But, it is too mainstream and won’t last for long. So, give her something that is eco-friendly, lasts for a while, and keeps on growing.

Some living herb plants or vegetable seedlings can be an excellent green gift. Mix up a variety of colors and textures so that your mom’s garden looks beautiful. If she does not have a garden, gift her some window boxes or containers too, which you can either make by yourself or buy ready-made. These plants will daily remind your mom of your love for her.

Show Your Love with Fresh Greens

Does your mom love eating fresh fruits and vegetables on a regular basis? Is she a vegetarian? Does she love juice fasting? If yes, you can give her a great Mothers Day gift by signing her up for a local consumer-supported agriculture (CSA) program. She will get farm-fresh fruits and veggies every week. You can also sign up yourself and split your take with her. In this way, she will get fresh greens and a visit from you every week delivering the produce to her.

An Organic Meal for Mom

Taking mom out for a meal is probably the most common Mother’s Day gift after flowers and cards. It is undoubtedly a great way to spend quality time with your mother and other family members. You can easily give that meal a green makeover by either taking her to a restaurant that uses local and organic produce or cook by yourself with produce from the local farmers’ market.

Recycled Gifts

Many recycled gift items are available in the market, which are fitting to an occasion like Mother’s Day. Jewelry items are smart, fashionable, and are able to win your mother’s heart. So, choose a company that uses eco-friendly process and ingredients in making jewelry items. You can also give her items like recycled newspaper roses, reclaimed wood cookbook stand, eco-friendly trashcan, recycled glass globes, etc.
