Hello {{user('firstname')}}
Father's Day is right around the corner! Instead of choosing a gift from the classic "two T's" (ties and tools), surprise Dad with an earth-friendly present he'll love.
There is nothing better than a personalized gift to say "I love you." The possibilities are endless with spreadshirt.com, where your kids can design a recycled or organic cotton T-shirt for dad online ($14 and up). Or pick up a LiViTY fedora ($39) made from an organic cotton-hemp blend.
Summer is here, and that means tomatoes. If Dad hasn't planted his yet, don't worry—there's still time! Surprise him with Gardener’s Supply Company's Organic Tomato Success Kit ($70), which has everything he needs to grow his own organic crop. What sets this system apart from others is its self-watering capabilities—less work for Dad!
Give that golf-loving dad a new way to "hit the green" with 100% recycled Dixon Earth Golf Balls ($30). These new golf balls conform to USGA standards, and they deliver the same distance and spin as traditional ones. From the 100% recycled packaging to the recycled ball itself, these golf balls are a great way for Dad to go eco-savvy.
Whether he's a runner, hiker, or biker, an active father needs to stay hydrated. Help him out while helping the planet with a Klean Kanteen stainless-steel water bottle ($18). Pick the lid that best tops off the dad on your list: choose from a sports cap with a rapid flow spout, flat cap for beverages your plan to pour later, or loop cap for quick and easy attachment to a backpack.
If Dad's looking to slash his carbon footprint, he'll be really excited about the electric-powered cycle from eGO Cycle 2 ($1,549 and up), a zero-emissions bike that zips around at 23 miles per hour and charges in three to six hours.
Working dads sometimes just don't have time to charge their BlackBerry, iPod, or GPS. This year buy dad a little more time by getting him the Solio Hybrid 1000 Solio Charger ($80). He can use this solar charger anywhere—just one hour in the sun will give him about 15 minutes talk time or 40 minutes of MP3 music.
