Green Furniture

While searching for a new couch online (I do a lot of shopping online), I stumbled across a link to eco-friendly furnishings on the "Home Furniture" website. The link explains the many different and obscure ways their furniture is built in an environmental way - like using reclaimed lumber or screws instead of glue. Worth a look if you want to know where your furniture comes from. Reasonable prices too. I also try to buy furniture made in Canada whenever possible, but that's another story.

Hit the Home Furniture site and follow the "Going Green" links.

Also see Treehugger for a very comprehensive guide to buying green furniture.
