Welcome New Sponsor – Sea Glass Designs
Please join me in welcoming Sweet Greens’ newest sponsor: Sea Glass Designs. Sea Glass Designs is a lovely little company focused on designing natural sea glass and sterling silver jewelry. Each piece is created using a unique piece of sea pottery, glass or even pebbles that are hand picked from the shores of our beautiful oceans.
Rita Laidlaw is the designer at Sea Glass Designs and she has been collecting sea glass since she was a small girl in Nova Scotia. She has passed down her healthy addiction to her children – making it a fun family business.
You can find Sea Glass Designs in several museums and shop throughout Canada and The United States and in Sea Glass Designs’ online store. Wouldn’t a beautiful piece of jewelry that the ocean helped to make be the perfect holiday gift? I am quite smitten with the Sea Stones Beach Pebble Necklace, isn’t it fabulous?
A huge thank you to Rita at Sea Glass Designs for sponsoring Sweet Greens. Would you like to learn more about becoming a sponsor? If so, please click here.

A Tiny Home in the Woods
Mr. Sweet Greens wants to build a tiny home in the woods of North Carolina. He loves the idea of living in Florida during the school year and when school is out – head for the hills for the summer. We are planning a upcoming trip to look at property. I really like this little lovely space from Jeffrey S. Broadworth. Doesn’t it look cozy? Can you imagine enjoying dinner with that view?

Have a Lovely Green Weekend
This weekend Cascadian Farm is participating in the Skagit Valley’s Festival of Family Farms which I am so excited to be apart of. I am excited to take a tour of the farm with the head organic farmer, Jim. We will also be visiting a nearby fish ladder and visiting all of the nearby property. How fun is that? I only wish that Mr. Sweet Greens and Eben could be here with me to pick pumpkins and go for a hayride. I will take a lot of pictures to share with you next week.
I can’t wait to get home, decorate for Halloween with Eben and make my favorite pumpkin chocolate cookies with him.
What are your weekend plans?
