Holiday’s can be a stressful time of year, especially when trying to find that special someone or family member a gift that will add value to their life be remembered. However, it can be even harder if that person is “eco-conscious” or has everything under the stars to begin with.
I have put together a list of top gifts which any green-minded, health-conscious person would love. We also asked 40 people and these came out on top. They range in price so can tailor to any budget.
1. Growable Gifts
If you have a foodie in the family and they live in a apartment or tight space, they will most likely really enjoy a growable gift. You can go with a plant, or perhaps get fancy with this green herb garden kit. What’s great is it fits in your kitchen.
2. Healthy Detox Tea
Who doesn’t love a cup of tea now and again? If your friend is the type that cares a lot about what they put into their body, values fitness and is trying to accomplish a big goal for 2015 (i.e. complete a triathlon, lose 20 pounds), this skinny tea will be a hit! The Amazon reviews say it really works too. What we like is that it contains many natural herbs, is high-quality, well presented and is hand-blended in Canada. {I personally have tried it and highly recommend}
3. Flip Flop’s Made From Yoga Mats
These candles are very cool and probably the most comfortable flip flops you will ever wear. If your family member or friend is going away somewhere warm this holiday, you should seriously consider buying them these flip flops. They are made from recycled yoga mats and come in many colors.

3. Soy Candles
Candles are a timeless scent that everyone will enjoy from a toddler to your grandmother. They bring so much joy on a cold winter day. These candles contain no dyes and are a great choice candle for home decor, meditation, yoga, dance, aromatherapy, general relaxation and stress relief.
4. Google’s Nest Thermostat
If you have been living in a bubble over the past year and haven’t seen the five million billboards and ads for this product, let me update you. Google recently bought “Nest” for 3.2 billion! This is a great product and all about energy savings and your gadget-minded friend/family member will go banana’s over it! Everything can be controlled from you mobile too.
5. Gifts that Help Conserve
World Wildlife Fund, National Wildlife Federation, Nature Conservancy, The Sierra Club and many more will allow you to adopt an animal or buy gifts that benefit the organization and its conservation work.
