For Your Green Thumb

If you’ve got a green thumb, why not cover it with a green garden glove? This pair of men’s garden and utility gloves are great for vegan gardeners. After all, why should animals be harmed just so we don’t get our hands dirty? Many gardening gloves are made out of leather, but this pair is made from Spandex and treated with Teflon to repel dirt and water. Not green materials by any means, but sometimes you need to choose what you think is the lesser of two evils.

These gloves have some pretty cool features, too. Gel pads on the thumb and fingers offers extra cushioning against blisters when the work is tough. The palms have a silicone pad for gripping. And when gardening in hot weather, you can turn down the terry cloth wrists, which double as a sweat band.

With your Vegan Gloves on your hands, be sure your garden grows the green way. Try to recycle rain water in a rain barrel as much as you can instead of turning on the garden hose, consider growing organic veggies and be sure to use non-toxic fertilizers and pest solutions.
