Cold and flu season is here again.

While I love this time of year for so many reasons, a snotty nose is not one of them. I make sure to give extra attention to natural ways of supporting my family's immune system during cold and flu season. Here are some of the things that work for us.

Ever since becoming a mom, I have placed a high priority on green cleaning products. It's important to me that I use products that clean well, but also are non-toxic and safe for my family and the environment.

I've been using Tropical Traditions' Powdered Laundry Detergent for about a month now, and I can definitively say that this product does meets both of those requirements.

I recently had the opportunity to try out Tropical Traditions Antioxidant Omega 3 Greens in Berry flavor. It's a powder supplement with all kinds of good stuff in it. The ingredients they've included are designed to support nutrition, digestion, circulation and immunity.

Tropical Traditions recently offered to send me their Gold Label Organic Virgin Coconut Oil  to review.  Our family already loves coconut oil, but we've never tried Tropical Traditions.  I was excited to give it a try, and I have to say, I don't think I'll ever buy another brand again!

I just wanted to let any of you cloth diapering parents know about a really huge cloth diaper giveaway going over on Kelly Wels' Facebook page.  We're not talking one diaper, or one wet bag.  She's giving away a $370 bumGenius One-Size Cloth Diaper Kit!
