Make Black Friday Red White and Blue (and Green!)
It's officially here! The biggest shopping day of the year. And it's time to make Black Friday a Made in America day.
Today, we've got a couple of suggestions for holiday gifts that proudly bear the "Made in USA" label.
Got a yogi on your list? Jade Yoga is the only remaining yoga mat manufacturer that makes their product in the United States. They are also the first "green" yoga mats, complying with all U.S. environmental laws and containing no PVCs. Plus, when you give a Jade Yoga mat, you'll give the environment a gift as well, Jade Yoga plants a tree for every yoga mat sold.
For the little one in your life, Green Toys are made in the USA from recycled milk jugs and make all kinds of toys from trucks to tea sets.
Finally, don't forget your furry friend! After they're done tail-wagging for all the relatives and visitors, give them a West Paw Bumper Bed to catch some Z's. The pet bed comes in a variety of attractive colors and is environmentally friendly.

Made in America
I am 100% behind the manufacture and purchase of goods here in the USA -- you are preaching to the choir. I came here to find such US sources, because every time I look, there is virtually nothing. Forgive me, but I'm not particularly interested in superficial final assembly of essentially Asian made goods.
Please, if I am not mistaken, the only way to review your US goods sources is to read each and every Red, White, and Blue blog entry, but there is no summary listing. I feel certain that I am not alone in desiring such a quick reference. You would be doing consumers and the US sources a favor. It would be so nice to find a listing right there on the front page.
Thanks much and Regards,
Linda Ogren
