EcoStatic Adhesive-Free Slickynotes
A “slick” alternative to post-its, these note papers have an electrostatic charge that makes them stick. Because they have no adhesive, you can write on them front and back. “You can stick to any smooth, dry surface like drywalls, windows, wallpaper, wood desk, doors and more. Their stable electrostatic charge lasts for weeks. Stick, re-stick and slide them around.”

Tried & True Wood Finishes
This wood finish is now being used on many wood products that choose to eliminate toxic exposures. “Made from all-natural renwable ingredients that do not contain solvents, toxins, or heavy metal dryers. Safe for food and skin contact…made from sustainable agricultural resources. Linseed oil is a plant derived material, pressed from the seeds of the flax plant. The beeswax used in Original Wood Finish is a by-product of honey production, and varnish resin used in Varnish Oil (hardened tree sap) is a natural forest product…After the impurities are removed, the linseed oils we use are polymerized or “aged”, this means they have enhanced drying properties. No petroleum distillates, or other solvents, or their derivatives are added. No heavy metal driers are used. The methods we employ are adapted from 18th to early 20th century finish making. We combine quality control, current technology and traditional formulations to enhance the properties of the natural ingredients used in Tried & True…All Tried & True wood finishes comply with the product safety standards established by the FDA: “safe for food contact surfaces” (FDA 21, Sec 175.300). Beeswax and natural varnish resin are FDA approved as non-allergic and non-hazardous. Our products, or any of its ingredients, are not regulated under the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act (Title 40) or the EPA Resource and Recovery Act (Title 49).”

Hudson Valley Seed Library
One of the most creative seed sites I’ve seen, you’ll love browsing this site for certified organic seeds for vegetables, flowers, and herbs.
