The Earthkit Weblog

Earth Kits recently attended the California Gift Show in LA. The California Gift Show is designed to allow retailers come in and browse what is new for the upcoming year and what they can buy for their stores.

I set up the booth and off we went for the weekend. Unfortunately, it seemed as if attendance was really down this year as the aisles were quite empty. Earth Kits did generate a lot of interest and made some sales!

We thank everyone for stopping by the booth and stay tuned as I am sure I will announce another trade show soon!

Sometimes I like to google Earth Kits to see what pops up and here are a couple links to some sites that have blogged about Earth Kits. These are blogs that have received the product and it has been tried and tested!

Continue to check out these sites as they often have great gift products and green ideas!

The past few months for earth kits have been busy and I am finally learning about how to blog so I wanted to do a little catching up.

In mid-December I rented a van and made my way up to the Santa Monica Convention Center to attend the Eco Gift Festival. I was so excited because this was the first trade show to show off Earth Kits. The Eco Gift Festival is the largest environmentally conscious consumer gift show in the world.  The festival was designed to deliver a stress-free holiday shopping experience unlike any other. The festival in my opinion was a little late in the season for holiday shopping as I encountered many people simply “browsing” rather than buying gifts because they had already finished their shopping.

Over the course of the three days for the festival, I met several great people, spoke to press, and received great feedback on the kits. I sold quite a few things that weekend and was just so happy to finally show people the earth kits face to face.

Deluxe Earth Kit For Kids

SAN DIEGO, CA–(Marketwire – November 6, 2008) – EarthKits is proud to announce the unveiling of their EarthKits.com website, the perfect site to find eco-friendly gifts. EarthKits has initially introduced unique products and “kits” for children but promises to roll-out additional products for babies, teens and adults over the coming months.

As the U.S. and the world continue to realize our impact on the earth, consumers are increasingly combining earth friendly ideals into their purchasing decisions. “I think people are realizing that they can make a positive difference even on an individual or family level,” said Leah LaBreche, president of EarthKits. “We are excited to share our Earth Kit products with parents who want to share the ‘Going Green’ mentality with their children.”

The Deluxe Earth Kit for Kids includes an organic cotton “Kids Go Green” T-shirt, Camelbak BPA-free “Kids Go Green” water bottle, The Everything Kids Environment Book by Sheri Amsel, “Kids Go Green” dog tag, “Green at Heart” wristband, and a seeded download card that can be used to download 2 free songs and then be planted into the ground to grow flowers. “It really is a great gift that kids can have fun with while learning about the environment at the same time,” said LaBreche. All Earth Kit products are either sold in combined “kits” or individually and each kit purchased includes a tree planted on the child’s behalf through a partnership between EarthKits and American Forests. Kits also include a personalized “Kids Go Green” Certificate of Achievement for each child. Product prices on the EarthKits.com website currently range from $3 to under $50 and the site also features an eco-friendly blog for families.
