My daughter and I are passionate about helping people green up their celebrations.
We like to say we're changing the world one celebration at a time.
Our premise is that people have begun establishing eco and green habits and do a pretty good job EXCEPT when it comes to celebrating.

We like to say we're changing the world one celebration at a time.
Our premise is that people have begun establishing eco and green habits and do a pretty good job EXCEPT when it comes to celebrating. This wouldn’t be a problem (or less of one) if we celebrated say once a year. But add the biggies like Christmas, Halloween, Easter and July 4th to the myriad personal celebrations like birthdays, anniversaries, baby and wedding showers and more and you’ll get the picture. Millions of us throw out what we know to be right as soon as a celebration rolls around. Our book, "Celebrate Green! Creating Eco-Savvy Holidays, Celebrations and Traditions for the Whole Family," shows people how to put their values to work regardless of the celebration. We offer countless easy, low- or no-cost ideas that are good for people, the Earth and the community.
Celebrate Green! is printed on 100% recycled paper by an FSC certified printer. On our website, customers may choose to plant a tree with purchase of the book. A portion of the proceeds from sales go to two non-profits that work to improve the health of children,

The response to our efforts has been overwhelming, astonishing and truly meaningful. Just a few of the reviews we've garnered:
“Celebrate Green! is a wake up call — and it’s a fun, engaging read, jam-packed with hints, how-to’s and humor. Whether you’re an old hand at thinking green or a total neophyte, Lynn and Corey will help you understand why your choices are so important and energize you, too. You’ll discover simple steps to align your life with a healthy Earth, while deepening the meaning and the joy of your celebrations.” Frances Moore Lappé, author of Diet for a Small Planet and Getting a Grip: Clarity, Creativity and Courage in a World Gone Mad
“Corey and Lynn make creating eco-savvy celebrations a cinch. Packed with powerful information and practical strategies, Celebrate Green! maps out simple and straightforward ways to honor what’s good for people, the planet, and communities throughout the year. I love how the authors balance fascinating statistics and the “why” behind going green with some of the most creative and “do-able” ideas I’ve ever seen. They have proven that making memories and making a difference can blissfully coexist in our holidays and traditions.” Deanna Davis, PhD, Author of Living With Intention
“Wow, wow, WOW! The book Corey and Lynn have created is itself a glorious celebration--of imagination, innovation, and most important of all, beauty. With their savvy guidance we discover how to celebrate in loving ways that nourish our souls and enrich our relationships, while also tending to the health of our global future. What a wonderful way for a new generation to learn to celebrate “with small footprints” on our shared mother, planet Earth!” Marcy Axness, Ph.D., author of Raising Generation PAX
