We eat healthy organic food. So why shouldn’t our pets? That’s why Edison-based K-9 Confections (www.k9confections.com) launched a new line of organic dog and cat treats.

The two–year-old company is the brainchild of an area woman, Jennifer Wilner, who was concerned about her beloved pet boxer’s food allergies. The line of tempting treats is completely free of wheat, corn and soy, and made from organic grains and vegetables, and high quality manmade ingredients.

Wilner says the company “brings to the marketplace what most pet owners want, and that’s a desire to give their pets high-quality, great tasting, good-for-you treats.”

Signature products include Pumpkin Biscotti, Peanut Butter, and Bitchin’ Beefy Bites.
Sounds good enough for friends of the two-legged variety!

Another enterprising Jersey gal has just launched pure and little (www.pureandlittle.com), “ a one stop shop carrying pure products for your little ones that are natural, safe and eco-friendly.”

Former public relations executive Kaitlin Spreitzer of Warren created the web-based business, which includes organic baby towels, sheets and blankets, along with clothing and bath items.

And North Jersey’s Kim Bloom recently purchased Rosie Hippo (www.rosiehippo.com) because she believes the right toys and other products “can help encourage positive development of skills and values in all children.”

The website features a huge array of hand crafted toys made from natural materials, that are the product of Fair Trade, and promote imaginative growth, diversity, and community involvement. A NJ My Way bonus; if you enter NJMW in the promotional code box, you’ll save 10% on your purchase.

Spend some time on these websites; you’ll likely find a gift that will help the planet, and bring some real green to these break-out businesses.
