The winner of the Essential Market Tote is Trish, who commented:

I’ve been green for over 20 years with recycling all bottle, cans, plastic and newspapers and composting all my coffee grounds and vegetable peelings. It’s really very easy.

The two runner-up winners of the Promo Tote are Connie, who commented:

My tip that I don’t think a lot of people already use is to consider buying cloth napkins instead of paper napkins. Everyone already does laundry and cloth napkins add a touch of elegance to dinner.

and Stacy, who commented:

I use cfl bulbs, reusuable bottles, cloth bags for groceries, catch rainwater for plants, recycle everything I can, make a few trips instead of several. I would like to try to compost.

The winners will be contacted via email and the “Make Love Not Trash” totes will be on their way shortly.
