Bombilla & Gourd® (pronounced bom-be-ya & gord), a brand new player in the organic beverage industry are the creators of Maté Tea™ (mah-tay), a USDA-organic ready-to-drink cold beverage made from yerba maté, a popular tea consumed almost religiously in areas of South America. Traditionally, the leaves of this subtropical evergreen are brewed in a gourd and passed between friends, who drink it through a metal straw or “bombilla” as part of their daily interaction. The young, innovative Bombilla & Gourd ® team introduces this culturally rich and healthy tradition into the lifestyle of the American public with a modern twist -- a smooth, refined taste, not always associated with matè, specifically served chilled. Maté Tea™ will be available at Whole Foods Markets nationwide beginning mid-October in five fusions: Blueberry, Pomegranate, Peach, Lemon and Mint & Honey.
Maté provides its drinkers with a healthy source of vitamins, minerals and energy. It contains 196 active chemical compounds including 11 polyphenols -- essentially 90% more antioxidants than green tea. Brewed and bottled in the United States, certified organic Bombilla & Gourd's ® Maté Tea™ uses only yerba mate tea leaves suppled by EcoTeas™, a member of the Fair Trade Federation. The pure leaves are shipped from a sustainable family farm in Northern Argentina . For additional information please visit www.bombillaandgourd.com or www.drinkmatetea.com |

The FEED 100 bag was launched exclusively in Whole Foods Markets nationwide in May, 2008. Each bag sold feeds children around the world in their schools.

FEED bags raise awareness about child hunger while giving an education, a full belly, and a brighter future to one hungry kid at a time. http://media.wholefoodsmarket.com/pr/wf/national/4-29- 08feed100bag.aspx |

Murray's Chicken
Murray Bresky, Murray's Chicken's namesake, took over his family poultry business, Falls Kosher Poultry, in the early seventies. Since then has remained committed to the chickens he raises and to those who eat them. In 1993, he began raising the signature breed of Murray's Chickens without the use of antibiotics, growth drugs or hormones. And Murray continued the tradition of raising the chickens with plenty of room to stretch their wings and access to fresh air and sunlight.
It did not surprise Marray: The bird that had the best living conditions also had the best taste. The Certified Humane label acknowledges the humane manner in which all Murray's Chickens are raised and handled. Murray's antibiotic-free chicken is the first brand to be certified as ‘Lean' by the American Heart Association. Murray's is the only chicken to be labeled ‘Lean' by the USDA. Consumers recognize the difference and continue, as they have for years, to eagerly pick up Murray's Chickens for their great taste and the low fat content of the signature breed. Murray's Chicken is taking the lead again with the poultry industry's first farm tracking system and a new ‘eco-thoughtful' packaging this Fall. www.murrayschicken.com |

The creation of RVL7 and its groundbreaking ECOLORTM technology, an innovative air dying technique that reduces energy, water and toxins used in manufacturing up to 85%, were inspired by the need to make a positive social statement for future generations and the environment. Company founders Amy and Joe Tomlinson, discouraged by a constant stream of negative messages saturating pop-culture and bombarding their six children, set out to promote change by developing a line of clothing that expresses positive messages through its graphics and its company DNA. Deep concern for the environment pushed them to take that mission a step further; promoting change on the clothing, and through the way it is made.

Ugly Fish Organics
UglyFish was born out of a desire to give children the same opportunity to express their individuality that we have as adults. As parents, we insist that our children's clothing be durable enough to withstand the test of the playground and beautiful enough to inspire our envy. The child inside us insists that everything we make be comfortable, unrestrictive and fun to wear. As optimists and activists we are passionate about teaching children a sense of responsibility to the world and empowering them to create change through the choices they make.
Inspiration is everywhere from vintage clothing to the runway to the playground. Adjustability, durability, versatility and pockets are essential. Each of our pieces is constructed from eco-friendly materials under fair manufacturing conditions. The resultant line is a fusion of function and form that lives up to the needs of our children and their lifestyle, our planet and everyone's future. www.uglyfishorganics.com |
