Seventh Generation Review and Giveaway

Posted by Ellie-A Little of This and a Little of That at 10:22 PM

                                                                           

Seventh Generation recently sent me a nice box full of their products to try.  They sent me the Living Home Starter Kit.  

It included:

  • Kitchen Cleaner - Our Wild Orange & Cedar Spice cleaner tackles even greasy cooking surfaces and smelly garbage cans with ease.
  • All-Purpose Cleaner - Cleans and degreases hard surfaces, indoors and out. Non toxic, it creates no harsh fumes. Safe for your family and the planet, great for wet mopping; not recommended on wood floors.
  • Glass & Surface Cleaner - Effectively cleans glass, mirrors, chrome and other hard surfaces – without streaks, toxins, fumes or harsh chemicals.
  • Shower Cleaner - Green Mandarin & Leaf daily-use shower spray prevents soap-scum buildup, mold and mildew without harsh fumes or toxic agents.
  • Toilet Bowl Cleaner - Compare our Emerald Cypress & Fir Toilet Bowl Cleaner to your cleaner. You'll love the change! Cleans and deodorizes without harsh fumes, harmful chemicals, aerosols or dyes.
  • Tub & Tile Cleaner - You'll love our Emerald Cypress & Fir Tub & Tile Cleaner. No harsh fumes. Refreshing spa scent makes bathroom cleaning a pleasure!
  • Brown Paper Towels - These unbleached, 100%-recycled towels clean up spills fast! No dyes or fragrances; 120 two-ply sheets per roll.

I tried each of the different cleaners and was impressed that there was no medical scent.  They were nice fresh scents.  I was most impressed with Glass Cleaner and how clean the mirror and my eye glasses were.  I love the reusable Tote because we are using those now here in Maryland.   They are paying $.5 a bag for each reusable bag you bring.  My least favorite was the Paper Towels.  They were too thin for my liking and I had to use more than I normally would to clean a mess.  But overall very pleased with my Kit. 

"Seventh Generation is committed to becoming the worlds most trusted brand of authentic, safe, and environmentally-responsible products for a healthy home."  The company is based in Burlington, Vermont.
A little information from the website: 
" Its business practice is focused on offering people avenues to express their idealism, passion, and commitment to causes larger than themselves at every point along its supply chain—from suppliers and partners to shareholders, customers and its own staff."

They got their name from the Great Law of the Iroquois that states "In our every deliberation, we must consider the impact of our decisions on the next seven generations." Every time you use a Seventh Generation product you are making a difference by saving natural resources, reducing pollution, keeping toxic chemicals out of the environment and making the world a safer place for this and the next seven generations."

A complete line of non-toxic household products

Seventh Generation brand-name products include: non-chlorine bleached, 100% recycled paper towels, bathroom and facial tissues, and napkins; non-toxic, phosphate-free cleaning, dish and laundry products; plastic trash bags made from recycled plastic; chlorine-free baby diapers, training pants, and baby wipes; and chlorine-free feminine care products, including organic cotton tampons.

10% of their profits are dedicated to non-profit community, health, environmental  and responsible business working for a positive change. 

Please visit their coupon page and print out valuable coupons to use: 

Visit their Gift Shop to buy your products.  
Here are the product categories they have for sale:



You can even get Material Safety Data Sheets of all of the products.

Seventh Generation is giving away the Healthy Home Kit to one of my readers.  We're going to do things a little different to enter this time.  We're going to have a Scavenger Hunt to make it a little fun.  Somewhere on the Seventh Generation Website there is an article on how to clean Pans.  Find it and tell me how they cleaned their pans.(MANDATORY AND MUST BE DONE OR YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED)

after cooking I prefer to wipe the inside with one of Seventh Generation's Natural Paper Towels.

I do this while the pan is still warm. If some cooking residue remains, I run a little water into the pan and swish it around with the paper towel.

Sue wipes the inside of the pan after cooking with one of Seventh Generation's Natural Paper Towels, whole the pan is still warm. If some residue sticks, she puts a little water in and "swishes" it around with a papertowel!

I am Internet savvy enough and after a couple minutes, I took to the "search" module. I found that the pans are olive oil lined and to keep the nonstick effect, they are cleaned with Seventh Gen. paper towels (natural).

This was great b/c this is EXACTLY how I clean my pans - a little bit of water, wipe clean with a paper towel (7th Generation, of course!).

If necessary, use a little oil to keep the pan nonstick (she rx'd olive, I use vegetable).

She wipes her olive oil seasoned pans with a paper towel, while they are still warm. and maybe a little warm water if they require a little more elbow grease!

I finally found it, should have thought to use the search button right away, but in not doing so I actually learned a few things. She wipes it out with a seventh generation paper towel while warm and uses a bit of water and swishes it around if there is still residue left.

how to clean pans:

Sue wipes the inside of the pan after cooking with one of Seventh Generation's Natural Paper Towels, whole the pan is still warm. If some residue sticks, she puts a little water in and "swishes" it around with a papertowel

Sue says that first, right after she is done using the pan, she wipes the inside with one of Seventh Generation's Natural Paper Towels. While the pan is still warm run a little water into the pan and swish it around with the paper towel.

Jayne on March 12, 2010 9:39 PM said... 25

I have pans that do not have the non-stick stuff in them. I am going to have to read more about seasoning them with olive oil to keep them naturally non-stick. The author of the post about cleaning pans simply uses a Seventh Generation paper towel when the pan is still warm to wipe out the pan. She does not use soap.

I do this while the pan is still warm. If some cooking residue remains, I run a little water into the pan and swish it around with the paper towel.

I like using our Natural Paper Towels for a number of reasons: they can be composted, they are tough enough to do the job without any soap, and I don't have to use a cloth that will need to be laundered.

Last but not least, I like that they are a natural (brown) color, meaning that an extra step wasn't used at the manufacturing level to whiten them.

Happy pan wiping!
