The Beginning!
Born mid-century in Cambridge, Massachusetts, Roxanne Quimby developed an early passion for the arts and nature that was to become the central theme of her future business philosophy. In 1975, after receiving her BFA in Painting from the San Francisco Art Institute, Roxanne moved to a small town in central Maine, where she used her life savings to buy her first 30 acres of woods. She built a small cabin where she and her twins, Hannah and Lucas, lived in harmony with nature for almost fifteen years without electricity, running water or other modern conveniences.
In 1989, Roxanne and her partner Burt, a beekeeper and refugee from New York, started Burt's Bees, a cottage industry which quickly evolved into an internationally renowned personal care company with a core commitment to pure ingredients, naturally efficacious formulas and earth-friendly packaging.{A Favorite Here at Organic Girl} In 2003, Roxanne sold the now multimillion dollar company, while continuing to serve on the Board of Directors and helping ensure the company maintains its commitment to natural integrity.
As a mother, designer and lifelong environmentalist, Roxanne saw a void in children's clothing wear and a lack of awareness of the benefits of organic cotton. Thus she began to "sew" the seeds of her newest venture - happygreenbee, an all organic cotton clothing line created specifically for kids.
Products:From leggings, tees, dresses and cardigans to socks, tights, hats and dolls, Happy Green Bee offers all the fixings to dress your little ones in organic goodness!
For Review Happy Green Bee Generously sent Emma a wonderful Chemise for Review.
Paired with coordinating leggings or alone as a tunic, their colorful long sleeved chemise is just sure to please. Rolled cuffs and collar provide easy-fit comfort while the gently ruffled hemline adds a stylish finish without getting fussy.
Their color combinations are adorable. We were sent the Pumpkin/Butterscotch/Chocolate/Bean for Review.
This is a wonderful stretchy chemise for Emma to wear with anything really. In the spring this will look super with a pair of leggings or a skirt. It also washes very well. I really like Happy Green Bean for their "fresh baked silliness with a euro-flair is stirred into every batch of their safe and sustainable, soft and stretchy, simply sensational styles". :)
happygreenbee has a simple philosophy: clothing that is comfortable, colorful, playful and ecologically responsible.
"We created Happy Green Bee so that a child can be a child, first and foremost," Quimby explains. "By using organic cotton, a comfortable and practical fabric, and simple bee-striped patterns, children feel as comfortable as they look while their parents take a small step in making a big difference in the environment their children live in."
Thank you Happy Green Bee for the wonderful Review opportunity and for sponsoring this Giveaway at Organic Girl.
