Where can I get 'green' presents

If you're looking for fairtrade clothing at a good price (not people tree - eek!), try Nomads and/or Black Yak. I've bought from both and they're very good. They are both Google-able.

HDRA do an adopt a veg scheme and a few years ago I bought my dad a year's adoption of something funny that had his name in it. He got a certificate (which was his birthday present from us).

Elderly parents/grandparents who have everything they need are really hard to buy for but this one really hit the mark with him when he opened the prezzie - I hadn't seen him laugh and laugh like that for years. It was brilliant. It gave him a joke to share with his friends too.

has the list of veg currently up for new adopters. I think it costs £15 per veg.

We did the Gift of sight, adopt a child in another country ... this year I am thinking of an organic veg box for my dad who is a keen cook, and previously grown his own but now lives between his flat and camper van!

i use them a lot as i'm bad for leaving gift buying to the last minute and they do gift wrapping and card and next day delivery too.

If you're after ethical chocolate etc then don't get too fixated on "fairtrade" - that's only one brand name. I adore Hotel Chocolat chocolate, they have their own scheme which they call Engaged Ethics, they're actively involved in projects to help the cocoa farmers they buy from (mostly Ghana & St Lucia) increase production, as well as guaranteeing to pay above market rate, and have their own cocoa plantation as well in St Lucia where they're building a factory to convert the cocoa into chocolate &hence add the value locally.

if you want clothes for under 6s/breastfeeding mums then www.ilovefrugi.co.uk is well worth a look, some lovely clothes (inc cut4cloth for under 2s) which are organic, fairtrade & they give 1%turnover for planet etc as well.
