Rave Review

Seed Sucker has received another great review of our unique product. Special thanks to Colleen - from The Princess & The Monkey blog!

What a rave review of Seed Sucker organic t-shirts - and we know there will be more and more of these as more and more people get to experience the soft, comfortable fabric - and see the hip colorful designs.

In her review, Colleen made a point to mention the soft fabric. It's true! Seed Sucker t-shirts are made of our custom Bamboo-Fit® Fabric - 70% bamboo, and 30% organic cotton. It's like BUTTA!

Thanks Colleen for taking the time to write a little something about us.

Colleen is married and has two kids, both with special needs - and journals her experiences and more along the way on the several blogs she writes and maintains - including The Princess and the Monkey, Mii and My Wii Family, & is a regular contributor to Kidz.

Going GREEN This Halloween

Halloween is quickly approaching. And by all accounts, it is not a very eco-friendly holiday! It is estimated that Americans will spend close to 6 billion dollars on Halloween – on everything from expendable costumes and decorations to individually wrapped candy. So here are a few ideas for a “Green Halloween”……

Start with your costume. Some of the best costumes I had growing up were made from stuff we already had in the house. I remember three of my favorite Halloweens. I was a hobo, a ballerina and a scarecrow. All were easily made from items stuffed in the back of my closet. One year, I painted an old refrigerator box as a "Fruit Loops Cereal" box - and cut holes for my head and arms. (talk about getting good use out of a box - get a fridge, wear it, then recycle it!) Search the web for some great Halloween costume ideas, then shop the thrift stores, your closet – or even better- your parents or friends closets! You can then “recycle” the costume by donating them back to Goodwill or another thrift store.

Decorating for Halloween is fun, but keeping it simple is much better for the environment! Try to resist the urge to buy out the Halloween decorating aisle. Purchase just one or two high quality Halloween decorations and re-use them each year. Simple sheets turned into ghosts swaying in the breeze are sure to elicit many shrieks from trick or treaters. Cotton balls can be made into great spider webs and leaves and candles can be turned into a spooky fall arrangement. Turn most of the lights off in your house (save some energy) light some candles – and a fun and scary Halloween scene will be set.

If you carve a pumpkin – be sure to save the seeds and roast them! They are delicious, just remember to add a little salt. The “guts” of the pumpkin can be turned into pumpkin puree and used to make delicious pies, bread, muffins and pancakes. Certainly you are into natural beauty - check out these organic skin treatments using pumpkin! And don’t throw your pumpkin away – remember to toss it into your compost heap.

Finally, instead of passing out candy – hand out “earth friendly” things. Pencils, fun erasers or sidewalk chalk are great candy alternatives. Or, to really help beautify the planet – pass out seeds that the little trick or treaters can plant.

So many simple ways to have a frightfully good Halloween – and help save the planet, too! For more information on a cool grassroots movement to make holidays more eco-friendly - check out Green Halloween!

Fall is here!

The leaves are falling and the air is crisp. With a new school year beginning, we all know what that means – school fundraisers! Seed Sucker Organic Apparel has a wonderful alternative to the traditional school fundraiser. Their “Apparel with a Conscience” fundraiser is fun, easy, educational and serves an environmental purpose.

Don’t we all have enough stationary, gift wrap and pens? Wouldn’t Aunt Ethel appreciate a fundraiser where she could buy something “hip” to wear, rather than another tub of cookie dough?

Seed Sucker’s “Apparel with a Conscience” fundraiser is the solution.

The Seed Sucker t-shirts display environmental messages which encourage positive changes for our environment. The shirts are made of 70% bamboo and 30% organic cotton and come in all sizes from babies to adults.

We all want to make a positive impact on the environment. We all want to help our schools or organizations raise money. Seed Sucker’s “Apparel with a Conscience” fundraiser does both!

They make the fundraising process easy and they have great launch videos for schools to use to get everyone excited about helping the environment and raising money for your school or organization.

When it comes to “going green”, we all examine our actions and determine if there is a better way to do things. Hurray for Seed Sucker for giving us a better alternative to fund raisers!

How to GREEN Your Halloween

Going Green is something we can all attempt to do - all the time! With Halloween and the rest of the holidays coming up - it's time to think about what you can do to help save our resources. This Halloween - use these handy tips to keep make HALLOWWEEN GREEN!

Tip 1: Ditch the car an get out and walk! Do not drive around the neighborhood or from house to house. Park the car and walk with the kids as they trick or treat through the neighborhood.

Tip 2: Light up the night responsibly. If you use flashlights, power them with rechargeable batteries. Also opt for other, greener options like LED flashlights, glow sticks, and solar-powered lights that you can carry or wear.

Tip 3: Use reusable and eco-friendly trick-or-treating bags. The old pillowcase standby is always a good choice, as are small canvas tote bags decorated for Halloween. Or, transform an old plastic bucket or pail into a fun candy collecting container.

Tip 4: Did you know you can wear eco-friendly costumes? This tip is two benefits in one - saving resources - AND saving money! Simply rent, borrow from friends or just dive into your closet and see what clothes could create an awesome costume and not only does it save some resources - it cost much less!

Tip 5: Say no to litter. Keep neighborhoods clean and make sure your kids don't drop candy wrappers as they trick or treat. If you see someone else has dropped wrappers, pick them up and dispose of them properly.

Tip 6: Recycle and repurpose what you can. Most candy wrappers are not recyclable so they usually get tossed in the trash. See what other fun options you can come up with before throwing them away, such as making a candy wrapper collage.

Tip 7: Recycle all that extra candy... Give some candy to the less fortunate, or mail to the local shelter. A great idea is to get the kids involved and decorate a candy box and mail it to our troops overseas.

Tip 8: Make full use of your entire pumpkin by roasting the seeds, turning the innards into soups or pies, and composting the jack-o-lantern carcass when you're done.

Tip 9: Keep it simple. When you're buying treats to give out, choose items that come in a minimum amount of packaging. Some folks skip the candy altogether in favor of use-able treats like pencils, pens, funky erasers and even nickels!

Have fun, stay safe - and GREEN YOUR HALLOWEEN!

Raising Awareness: Ocean Acidification

What people DON'T know - is that we are slowly destroying life in our ocean from burning fossil fuels. It's odd - because a lot of our planet's environmental, ecological and atmospheric problems are are due to things that people DON'T know.

Seed Sucker, Inc. thinks it's VITAL to spread awareness about issues around our world - and we stumbled across this awesome movie featuring narration by Sigourney Weaver.

Please take a few moments to watch Acid Test, (below) produced by NRDC (Natural Resources Defense Council) and directed by David Hinerfield. It was created to raise awareness about the widely unknown problem of ocean acidification, which is a direct threat to life in the seas, and also the health of the entire planet and mankind. Ocean acidification is similar to global warming in that it is the result of too much carbon dioxide in the earth’s atmosphere. Acid Test originally premiered on Discovery Planet Green last month.




Seed Sucker, Inc - is about raising environmental awareness, and providing a product using as many green resources as possible. Our organic t-shirts have an environmental message, and are made from 70% Bamboo and 30% Organic Cotton.

While our messages are mostly about trees and seeds (including our name) and we might not seem to address air or water pollution or oceanic environmental issues - we must not forget our beautiful oceans - which cover over three-quarters of our planet and account as the major power to create life, and sustain life.

We address many of these issues on our environmental information website, and have many new designs and messages planned for our shirts.
