    Default Organic Christmas gift ideas?

    My BIL is into everything organic. My SIL is getting him a worm farm this year and he's been pining over these little spoons by OXO. SIL told me that he loves organic stuff, so that's my target group to buy in this year.

    What are some good organic inexpensive gifts to get?

    What about buying him all the stuff needed for an organic dinner? My bro and his girlfriend always get that for my dad. They always get him like Ham, potatoes, cabbage. You could do something similar, but organic?

    Gaiam has some great stuff. All their products are organic or eco-friendly. Some of it is pricey, but not all. Not sure of the link, but just search "Gaiam" and you'll find it.

    My DH's favorite clothing is made out of organic hemp, it's sturdy, well made and and very "breathey" ( terminology??) which is important for the hot summers we get. It's very easy to care for also, wash in cold water and hang to dry! It can be on the pricier side but if you can find it on sale its definitely worth the investment. Now heres the "tricky" part many places that sells these clothes also sell hemp "paraphaniala" so may not be an option if you are adverse to entering these shops. I know our local, ahem "Hemp Boutique" has a huge section dedicated to organic clothing ( bamboo and hemp) so I have no problem whipping in and heading straight for the lower clothing floor.
