Queen Bee Creations & Chickpea Baby

PoppyKyoto

The Chickpea Baby bags are made out of Vinyl, but the company uses a lot of recycled materials and the bags are made locally.  You will get years of use from one of these bags, from baby and beyond.  I find that the lifespan of an item can have as much of an impact of the earth as what it is made out of!  Get to know the company and see upcoming products on their flickr page.  Looks like a FUN place to work!

Strollers • UPPAbaby

UPPAbaby Strollers and Accessories



Strollers themselves are not the greenest of childhood accoutrements, but there are stroller makers who are making at least some effort to reduce their footprint. This company has recycling and charitable programs, and encourages employees to "go green", with additional company goals for the future. The "Vista" stroller above left can be used with an infant car seat (with adapter), and will hold a child up to 40lbs. The "Bubble" shown above right is a great car seat accessory. It protects your baby from the elements while still giving you easy access, and it works with almost all seats. UPPAbaby makes sturdy products that should last you through a few kids, and you can protect your investment with their great travel stroller totes too.
