I've been inside all week

  I just read that average Americans spend 90% of their time indoors. Levels of pollution inside the home and be 2 to 5 times higher than outdoor levels. Homes have become tighter and more energy efficient- this is great! And it makes it all the more important to let fresh air in and be careful about what pollutants and toxic chemicals are allowed into our homes through household cleaners, paints, dry cleaned clothes, bedding, personal care products, etc.
 At The Pear Tree we are making a commitment to reduce exposure to unnecessary chemicals and pollutants- for the benefit of the environment and personal health. Our intention is to become  resource for a greener cleaner healthier home.
