Hi everyone! The MOM’s blog has been pretty sleepy for the past few months, but its time to fire it back up. I’m Jen, My Organic Market’s new Environmental Coordinator. I’m really excited about helping to make MOM’s as environmentally responsible a company as possible, and I’ll be using this blog to give you updates on the different projects I’ll be working on. I’ll also throw in a few news tidbits, green tips, and any other environmental information that I find interesting… and I hope you’ll share your views with me, too!
