Step1
Go green with flowers or plants. Buy locally grown, organic flowers or plants this mother's day. Women love flowers, and these will be special because they will be green in more ways than one.
Step2
Buy organic. Perfume, cosmetics and chocolates can be purchased through environmentally friendly sites and local stores.
Step3
Treat her to a spa treatment. Buy your mom a day at a natural spa, or get her a lovely home spa gift basket. They can both be found online, or you can make your own spa gift basket at a local health food store.
Step4
Let your mom grow her own herbs. Buy her a set of organic herb growing kits so she can cook with fresh ingredients. This is the perfect gift for the gourmet mother.
Step5
Add to her closet with fair trade clothes and accessories. Search for fair trade gifts on the web, and make sure the company can validate their claim of meeting fair trade social standards.
Step6
Purchase green gift cards for the mom who is hard to shop for. Find her favorite green shop in town or online and get her a gift voucher. Then she can find and buy the best green Mother's day gifts for herself.

on 2/26/2008 I adopted a tree and dedicated it to my mom and she loved it. I plan to do it again this year because it was only $25 with Blue Planet Registrar.
