Vote Mountains of the Moon for Green Business of the Year!

Well kids, you did it! Good ole' Mountains of the Moon Eco.Fashion received enough nominations to get us a spot among ten green businesses in the running for Co-op America's Green Business of the Year! This is actually the third year in the row that we've made it to the final ten, and let me tell you, we've been pretty giddy at the office today. We'd be even giddier (is that a word?) if we won, so pretty, pretty please (with organic raw sugar top), take just a second and vote for us right here. We're lucky #7: Mountains of the Moon.

Co-op America states that this award is "a celebration of the leaders of the green economy, and a challenge to corporate America to follow their path. Green Businesses are companies that work to help – not hurt – people, communities, and the planet."

We like to think that we are all of these things (and are proud to dedicate ourselves to these business practices every single day), while also making sure you look absolutely fashionable and gorrrrrrrgeous. In fact, we've been committed to running an earth/human/animal-friendly business since back when I was creating recycled clothing from a rundown sewing machine propped up on a cardboard box in my dorm room at college. The green movement is huge right now, and we are thrilled that the state of the environment is (FINALLY) gaining such widespread attention. But we're also proud that this is a cause that has motivated our designs and business model since day one - well before it became "the thing to do."

If you have any questions about our company, feel free to e-mail us at customerservice@mountainsofthemoon.com. And don't forget to vote for us. Here's the link again, just in case you don't feel like scroll up: Vote for Mountains of the Moon!

With Love & Gratitude,
melissa
