I’m rather curious, Esther, as to whether you have received my two e-mails concerning ethical production of Christmas Trees.
And even more curious of it’s a subject YOU are curious to pursue!
There’s a lot ‘out there’, such as: the retail companies which proclaim their social responsibility but don’t even bother to respond to my simple questions about the Christmas Trees they are selling – compsnes like IKEA, MIGROS, JUMBO – not only in England but in Austria and Switzerland, for example.
Your blog is a joy to read: attractively designed and spacious!
