Some days the news headlines are bleak. Some days the contrast between overflowing Walmart parking lots and empty spaces in front of local establishments can leave me feeling dismayed ... despite it all, those feelings never last for long. Around every corner I can find people who inspire me by their words and their work in the world.

Sierra is a woman who fits that bill. Reflecting her passion to be a stay-at-home and to support local businesses and fair trade products she launched The Green Women Merchantile.

Through her business she offers an assortment of gifts for conscious living and conscious parenting.

• Gratitude Gift Baskets
• African Market Baskets
• Children's Music ... and more.
