If you’ve met me in real life in my role as a blogger, you might recall that I don’t love being categorized as a “green” blogger, or labeling this a “green” blog.
I fear applying that label to my blog might limit what I can write about. I also don’t feel that it’s an accurate description of what I do, since there are often times that I don’t choose the “green” path. For instance, I know about composting but I don’t do it (that’s an entirely different post).
I recently realized recently that, although I know a lot of green bloggers that I’ll meet up with at BlogHer 2011 in San Diego this year, I actually have never met another green blogger in Dallas.
I know this is a notoriously consumption-oriented area, and that most of the time being “green” is more of a marketing tactic for companies in Dallas than a personal mantra. But I’ve also been to the Plano Green Expo for several years, and I’m a member of a local discussion board for natural living which covers the entire DFW area.
Surely there is at least one other green blogger in this area. Do you know of one?
Sorry this took so long, Abby, but I just posted a link to your blog on my blog Facebook page as another DFW-area green blogger! Sorry I missed you before – hope we get to meet IRL some time soon!
Thank you so much! I’ve tagged her too!
I know that there are a few bloggers up there, but I don’t know if any of them are green or not. I know a few of them blog specifically about cloth diapers.
When I lived in Dallas, I lived a very “green” life, but I didn’t often blog about it. If I found something new or a different idea I would share on my blog, but I would say maybe 5% of my blog posts were regarding the green-ness of me.
me, me, me…
I can relate to the issue of labeling yourself as green but I think you do a great job of being mindful even if you’re not 100% green. That is the point anyway, right? I don’t know if I’d call myself green or not, but I don’t know what category we might fit into. Lifestyle?
Anway, I’m here. I’m local.
I have a friend who used to live in Dallas (now Wichita Falls) who is a green blogger. http://www.thegreenwife.com
Awesome, thanks Valerie and Abby!
