I do believe we have ourselves an established tradition around here: The Crunchy Betty Biannual Big Natural Basket Giveaway.
Almost six months ago, to the nose, we did one of these and it was very, very exciting. This time, it’s even BIGGER and BETTER and NATURALER. (I have to let the cat out of the bag early … in addition to products from 5 fantabulous small natural businesses, there’s also a gift certificate in this basket from a place that starts with an M, an R, and an H.)
You guys know I don’t do a lot of giveaways around these parts, but I absolutely, positively love highlighting some of my favorite small natural sellers. People who don’t have the unlimited ad budgets of huge companies and corporations. People who are putting their hearts and souls into the products they offer.
See, throughout the year, small companies like to send me their products to try out and give them feedback on (and hopefully be included in one of these giveaways). I sample the products (you really have to twist my arm for that … ha) and then choose a handful of my favorites to highlight on the giveaway post. In return, these masterful crafters of all things natural offer up full-size products for the giveaway, and then I assemble them all and send them to the WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER.
As you browse through this post, I just kindly ask (not demand) that you do some of the following:
- Visit the online stores and poke around!
- Like the businesses on Facebook, Tweet about them, or chat them up over dinner with your kids or cat.
- Order something if it catches your eye, or bookmark it for a great Christmas idea.
- ENTER TO WIN THE BIG BASKET AT THE END! (Instructions and rules at the bottom)
I’ll be announcing a winner on Monday morning, on August 27, 2012 on Facebook and I’ll notify the winner via email. However, PLEASE check the Crunchy Betty Facebook on Monday to see if you’ve won. Last time, I had to go through THREE separate random drawings over the course of a month and a half before I actually found someone who responded to their winning email. If you’re not careful, your notification could go to spam and you could lose your chance forever. It happens.
Enough chat. CHECK OUT THE GOODS!
Chagrin Valley Soap and Salve
I found out about Chagrin Valley Soap and Salve through Beth Terry at My Plastic Free Life, who just exudes love and praises for Chagrin Valley’s shampoo bars.
I haven’t tried one yet, but guess what? There’s one in the basket, yo! Along with 2-oz containers of Lemon Lime shaving balm and Summer Rain cream deodorant.
Even though they’ve reached heights of excellence with no-plastic, no-preservative shampoo (and conditioner) bars – and you HAVE to check out all their different types, it’s crazy – they also carry a metric ton of other fabulous bath and body care products, along with, of course, some superbly healing salves.
They’re truly a family company, and they don’t do a lot of advertising (and never any giveaways, so this is VERY special), with a heart of gold and the most natural, organic ingredients any one of us could ask for. THIS is a company that deserves our support. Yessir.
Visit Chagrin Valley Soap HERE at their website, and you can like them on Facebook HERE where you can keep up with all their product updates and news (I just saw an update for an apple spice soap … YUM).
Eco Nuts!
Not only are there four incredible products in the Big Natural Basket Giveaway from Eco Nuts, but they’re also the latest Crunchy Betty supporter (they love us!). When you’re browsing the site, click on their button over there on the right hand side.
Eco Nuts carries a wide variety of products using soap nuts, but they also sell the soap nuts themselves! (Not sure what to do with soap nuts? Check out this post. They. Are. AWESOME for laundry, especially.)
Included in the Big Natural Basket Giveaway is a box full o’ Eco Nuts soap nuts, good for 100 loads, a bar soap made with soap nuts, a sweet bergamot linen spray, and a 24-load bottle of their liquid laundry detergent. SERIOUS score here.
Visit the Eco Nuts website here and check out all the unique products, and then pop over to the Eco Nuts Facebook page for more soap nutty tips, laughs, and goodness!
Cocoa and Shea
If you want rich, thick, and oh-so-natural, Cocoa and Shea is THE place to find it. (As an aside, I just noticed Amanda’s selling a decidedly NOT bath and body product called Salted Caramel and Whiskey Truffles and words cannot explain … how … delicious … oh good grief and groan with pleasure.)
Cocoa and Shea sent me their whipped shea butter called Pot De Joie to try out, and I was SMITTEN. Immediately. It’s rustic and rich and smells delightful, and I swear on everything that’s mushy, my skin hasn’t felt this soft since I was in diapers. Not that I remember. I’m just guessing.
In the basket is a container FULL of this rich Pot De Joie whipped shea butter, two bars of gorgeous handmade soap, and a tube of Bittersweet Orange Peels Dipped in Chocolate Lip Balm. Also, there is a little bit of heaven in there.
Cocoa and Shea has a little Etsy shop, but I truly believe the mother-daughter team has something special, something as-of-yet undiscovered. And we’re all about to discover her.
You can visit the Cocoa and Shea store right here, which will take you to Etsy ordering pages when you’re ready (and, oh yes, you will be ready). And here’s the Cocoa and Shea Facebook page, full of wisdom and beauty.
Meadow’s Own
Meadow’s Own is another undiscovered gem, but Kori Pressnell, who owns it, specializes in custom skincare items.
Most of what you can buy in the Meadow’s Own Etsy store is customizable and all of it is simple, good, natural skincare. I love how straightforward and real Kori is, and I think you will too as you browse through her nearly 215 product listings on Etsy (WOW!)
Included in the Big Natural Basket Giveaway from Meadow’s Own are four simply perfect products! A Vanilla/Sweet Orange all-natural deodorant, natural toothpaste, Peppermint face spritz, and a Grapefruit body scrub.
Of all the Etsy stores I’ve frequented, Meadow’s Own is one of the most impressive, and it’s full of affordable options for ANY (and I mean ANY) skin type or need. You really do have to see it to believe it.
Visit the Meadow’s Own store here!
Marmalade Hills
Marmalade Hills is all about elegance and beauty. Liana, who runs it, has a gift when it comes to blending ingredients and scents; she comes up with the most alluring products you can imagine. And while not everything on the Marmalade Hills site is preservative or synthetic fragrance free, much of it is.
Like what’s in the basket!
Included in the Big Natural Basket Giveaway is a gorgeous bottle of Body Nectar body oil, a 9-oz tub of Tea Tree softening foot soak, and tube of Tea Tree foot balm. The Marmalade Hills packaging is so elegant – seriously perfect for a special gift (I can totally see bridal shower goodness here).
Visit the Marmalade Hills website to check out all her offerings, as well as the Marmalade Hills Facebook page to see what’s new.

So many great products and I was tempted to pick something with lavender or the Eco nuts but the first item caught my eye and I most want to try the Coconut Milk Shampoo Bar.
craftyone
I like using eco nuts.
Matthew Bombarger
I like using your natural deod. I am now using a double edge razor for shaving. I would like to see shaving supplies along with items for healthy skin. Shower time is my me time. I spend an hour to an hour & 1/2. Gives me time to spend on me a time to relax. My wife enjoys the fact I like to take care of myself. I would really enjoy getting the chance to try the different products. Thanks
Marla
all of it looks so awesome!
Barb_b
Well of course ALL of it excites me, but the one that I would try first would be the Cocoa and Shea whipped shea butter called Pot De Joie! It sounds really yummy! And win or not, I’m definitely checking these all out! They all sound amazing!
Cecelia Caines
Well, it’s all absolutely lovely! I must say that the Tea Tree foot soak and balm had my toes wiggling with excitement. As a teacher who’s started back to work, I can almost feel the Tea tree products working their magic.
Many thanks.
LT
All of it! But I SO want the Chagrin Valley, Cocoa & Shea, and MRH gift certificate!
Christine
All of it (especially the gift card!) ….crunch, crunch!
Sherri
Pick me Crunchy Betty, pick me! I would love to have all of it of course, but I would love to win the eco soap nuts laundry detergent. I’ve been wanting to try soap nuts for years. All of the giveaways are fab! Crunchy Betty you ROCK!
Denise Hovland Marsland
All of it Please !
Elizabeth MacDuffie
I want it all. Every last thing. I <3 Crunchy Betty. Your blog is an inspiration to me. I edit an arts & literary magazine, Meat for Tea: The Valley Review. I know you're a writerly sort and invite you to take a peek and maybe even submit. http://www.meatfortea.com
Brandi West
As a natural product junkie, I am drooling over every gorgeous bar of soap and other fabulous goodies! I am so greedy, I want it all, but especially the deodorant. My sweaty, yet suddenly super sensitive and ultra finicky pits are in search of a product that can tame their decidedly stinky ways. I never win anything but I am so glad to have links to all the fabulous products, I will have to treat myself to some.
Thanks for all the wonderful info!!!
Bianca Burks
This all looks wonderful, but I am really curious to try Econuts and all they offer!
Kelly
Everything of course but especially the Lemon Lime Shaving Balm !!!
Lisa
All of it! Have wanted to try the laundry products for some time now! 🙂
Kristin Schumacher
Definitely the MRH gift certificate. I shop on their online store frequently, especially for carrier oils!
Rebecca
I really want the whipped shea butter and that orange and chocolate lip balm. Yummy!
Hailey
My favorite thing in that AWESOME gift basket would be the mountain rose herbs gift card, because I love that website!
David
Most excited about the eco nuts. Have read about them in the past for doing laundry, then read your post & now know they can be used for so much more! Aside from laundry i’m excited about using eco nuts for a shampoo (currently using baking soda/water).
While the eco nuts are probably my #1 must have item, everything in the gift basket (not included) sound wonderful. Over the last few years my wife & i have transitioned into a natural/green organic way of life & feel we (as well as the planet) are better off for it.
My wife currently makes our deodorants, but i’m curious to try some of those offered in the giveaway.
[email protected]
Drea
I am most excited about the gift card. I just discovered your oh-so-amazing blog and am now hooked! I can’t wait to try all of the fun recipes I have come across. Some spare change would really come in handy to offset my serious need to buy all of those supplies and get going!
Mary
toothpaste, deodorant, shampoo
Emen
I would like all of it please! Everything sounds delicious! And since shipping is so expensive for the mountain rose herbs place, the gift certificate would be a great push to finally let me expand my crunchy cabinet so I can make more of your great recipes! Thanks for doing this draw.. even though I have a slim chance of winning, its still exciting!
Carol Ezovski
Oh wow! What a decision to have to choose one thing. The Cocoa and Shea Pot De Joie sounds great; I’d really love to have the Mountain Rose Herbs Gift Certificate for $65, though! Thanks.

Me Too
ALL OF IT !!!! YES YES YES !!!! Have been wanting to try soap nuts for laundry, but would love to try all of these amazing products. Thank you for sponsoring this wonderful give-away, and introducing us to these companies that make all natural products. I have developed serious sensitivities to chemical additives and non-natural/synthetic frangrances and perfumes, so I’m always on the look out for new products and companies that produce top quality items using all natural ingredients.
Sarah Orsak
Love this! I dream of all these items!

I am so glad to have found your site! Everyone of them sounds lovely! The natural laundry detergent, the linen spray, the coconut milk shampoo bar and the natural deodorants. And the foot stuff! Really need the foot stuff! And the gift certificate so I can try some of your recipes!
Aileen
All of the products look amazing! The Cocoa and Shea soaps are especially tempting, and I already get so much from MRH that the gift certificate would be put to very good use. I’ve also been wanting to try soapnuts… it’s good that you said we don’t have to pick just one!
Jayyo
I would love to try all of it! Love your blog!

cassie
I want it, I need it, all! Especially that laundry soap…
Ashley
The certificate to Mountain Rose Herbs is what has me excited about this thing. They have so many bulk herbs I want to purchase for so many different things! Not to mention soaps, waxes, essential oils, and carrier oils that are an amazing quality. Now, I am off to do Hurrican Isaac preparation. I have so many crunchy things to pack up!
Deborah
I’ve looked at MANY of the products – they ALL are new to me and all sound FABULOUS, so I simply can’t say which one I want the most. I guess the one I’m most curious about is the Eco Nuts, as I hadn’t heard of them before. But I still want to win the WHOLE BASKETFUL (without the basket, of course – you can keep that to fill up for the next giveaway)!
Donna
WOW…You have put together so many wonderful products! I for 1 would love to have them all! 🙂
Marisa
The face spritz, the deodorant, and the MRH gift certificate. Sweet!
Kay
How can one choose a favorite with a lineup like this??? However, because I recently started making a LOT of my own products (in part, thanks to your page), I would be thrilled to have the MRH gift card.
jo
I’m very new to using more natural products, so I want all of it! Thank you for the opportunity 🙂
Melissa
They all sound like really awesome goodies, but if I had to pick one in particular I think I’m most excited about the Eco Nuts laundry stuff. I’ve wanted to try soap nuts for a time now :^D
Tay
Wow!! All of it!!! But perhaps mostly the Chagrin Valley Summer Rain Organic Cream Deodorant 🙂 – thank you!!!

Nikki Hundt Prohaska
I’ve recently had a hair-dastrophy and your blog has inspired many great products to save what I have left. On top of my locks thinning, my skin has taken it’s toll with years of battling thyroid disease that almost destroyed my life. The only method of returning a quality of life for me was to move towards natural approaches to regain my health and now optimized hormonally, my outward appearance is the only thing left to look healthy again. As, and an internet reseacher and community support advocant for thyroid disease with functional medicine and natural health products, your blog information, and THIS contest, sounds like the perfect solution on two levels. MY personal quest to improve my skin and hair (with other things) and also a way to find terrific products to inform others of the amazing benefits of these products. Each product offered in this give-away basket have been read over, and over, and over, on the main ingredients as having terrific results for many looking for help overcoming this disease and I would like to share first-hand information with them on how they can offer terrific results!

I WANT TO TRY IT ALL but oohh I can’t wait to get my hands on the Meadow’s Own Peppermint Face Spritz!! (Because even if I don’t win, although I really hope I do, I will be buying some.) Living on the coast in Mississippi, I’m sure it is pure heaven in a bottle since we pretty much have summer 9-10 months out of the dang year. Not to mention I have two little ones starting soccer next week. Oy. You rock, Betty!!
Christine Marie

All of the items in your basket giveaway look splendid. I’m especially curious about the Eco Nuts and the shampoo bar–anything to help the environment. I’m also a HUGE fan of Mountain Rose Herbs and they’re my go-to source for all things herbs and spices.

Robin
What an amazing list of products! I began cleaning up my personal care products about 6 months ago & was surprised to find I have a very crunchy streak. I’ve been building my DIY ingredients so the Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate has my attention. Each store has something interesting & am curious about the deodorants (still struggling to find a DIY recipe that works for me)! So I guess I want it all!
Arianne
I’m an Aromatherapy enthusiast, who happened to find your site filled

fave site). 🙂
Thanks so much for all your wonderful recipes and for supporting small businesses.

I’m an Aromatherapy enthusiast, who happened to find your site filled
with awesome and useful recipes, while looking to make a natural lotion
for my mom. I would so love to win this!!. All the products sound
amazing but I would love that Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate (my
fave site). 🙂
Thanks so much for all your wonderful recipes and for supporting small businesses.
RavenSR
The MRH gift certificate and the soap nuts have definitely caught my attention. I have a huge list of stuff to order from MRH and that would really help.
Richelle Cogley
I would love to get the Eco Soap – I just recently discovered and am dying to try! [email protected]
MeeshaB
I would LOVE to be able to try the Mountain Rose Herbs stuff. I’ve heard wonderful things about them, but have yet to order. Also, I’d love to get my hands on some of the harder to find EOs. We don’t have a lot of them around here in SC.
Lynn
Oh my goodness! So many fantastic products, how could a body single out a most wanted?! I know I can’t, I want them all please. Thank you so much for having the drawing and of course a big thanks to these wonderful companies for their generous donations!!
Makenzie
Everything looks ahhh-mazing!! But I am most excited about the Marmalade Hills Body Nectar moisturizing body oil, pot de joie of whipped moisturizing goodness, and
Chagrin Valley Soap’s coconut cream deodorant. Whoever wins, please post some reviews of these products on Crunchy Betty’s Facebook! 🙂 Keeping my fingers crossed!!
Sara
The shaving balm, lavender soap and that orange chocolate lip balm sound AMAZING! The whole basket sounds incredible!

Kathryn
The Cocoa and Shea Lavender Castile Soap sounds awesome!
Sterling Hutchinson

Gori Bhabhi
I’m another one of those excited-about-everything girls 🙂 I’m super excited about the coconut milk shampoo bar, however! I’ve been meaning to try a shampoo bar for forever now. Same with soap nuts! Excited to see two of the items on my Need To Try list in this giveaway.
sara marie
oh my goodness, how can a person choose. Everything sounds just perfect, but I think the bergamot & linen spray sounds delicious. absolutely.
[I have just recently discovered your site, and I am IN LOVE.
p.s. the Oil Cleansing method changed my life]
Josephine
I’m totally torn between the Pot de Joie and the grapefruit scrub. But quite frankly, all of it sounds wonderful!
Drea
I am having a hard time deciding…. but think the Cocoa & Shea Pot de Joie sounds amazing.
Tyler
The MRH gift card. They get a lot of my business, and are bound to get more.
Anjuli
Soap nuts.
Karen
I’m always on the hunt for a good natural deodorant, so it would be awesome to try these! Also so curious about soap nuts. Right now I make my own powder detergent, but I’d like to see what soap nuts are like.
Anastascia Beaverhausen
I’m really anxious to try the EcoNuts soap nuts and the bergamot linen spray.
Lola
I WANT IT ALL !!!! Most intrigued by the Vanilla/sweet orange deodorant and Tee Tree Foot Balm 🙂
Tara Gamble
Meadows Own!! I have been tossing the idea around for months to start tinkering with making my own products….these are very similar to what I’d be into!! Love this site!! Thanks for all you do!
Garry Clifton
I want all of it! I just tried the Eco Nuts and they worked great!
Joie
Every item looks fabulous! As a breast cancer survivor, I’ve changed a lot of my habits and gone the most natural way possible. I DIY as much as I can to control what goes in and ON my body these days. Your blog and emails have certainly added to the quality of my life. Thank you so much !! Crunchy is as Crunchy does. 🙂
Amanda Lawson
Alll of the products look awesome, but if I had to pick one to be most excited about it would be the laundry nuts. I have sensitive skin and laundry detergent is the worst of the offenders!
Kathy
Thank you so much for the chance to win such wonderful prizes!!!! I think everything looks amazing but the bar soaps and natural deodorant sound great! :o)
[email protected]
Tiffany
I lost all of my diy skincare supplies in my last move. I would be so stoked to have the gift certificate, but would fully appreciate every damn thing in that basket. This is awfully generous!
Shelley Parsons McNeil
Love it all, but the laundry products would be my pick. LOVE your blog.
Courtney Tucker
Ohhh, I am beyond excited just looking at all of these lovely products!
My favorite would have to be the Certificate to Mountain Rose Herbs, could use that right now, am needing lots of Natural Goods to make my own skincare!
This would be a dream to win!
Thank You!
Suzanne
I would love to try the Vanilla/Sweet Orange all-natural deodorant and the grapefruit scrub. I have learned so much from your blog and I am hooked! Thank you!
Tlear
This is amazing! I really want the body butter and the soap nuts plus all of it!
Mary Stahl
This would be a godsend! I would want it ALL of course. I have the Eco nuts and love them, but the others would be great to try out. I am always on the hunt for natural, good for you products.
Kendra McDowell
Everything mentioned sounds so amazing! My mouth literally started to water when you described Cocoa and Shea’s Pot De Joie, I immediately opened their page to have a look around. So thank you kindly just for giving me the heads up. I will be sure to support all the shops mentioned and I will most definitely purchase the Pot De Joie if I don’t win this “basket”. Crossing my fingers! 🙂
Katrina H
Oh, Chagrin Valley shampoo bars saved my hair! I’ve been working my way through trying some of the HUGE variety they carry. So far, everything has been absolutely wonderful and I would love to try their Coconut Milk shampoo bar! Though I love the company and want them to be successful.. I can’t help but feel like my secret supplier is out! Also would love to try out everything else!!
Heather Keeney
Oooo it all looks so awesome, I’m but sure I could pick just one thing! The first that pops into my head is the vanilla sweet orange deo from Meadow’s Own.

Donna
I would like to try the Eco Nuts. I’ve never used them before.
Gigi
This all looks amazing but I’d have to say that I’m most excited by the MRH gift certificate. I’m obsessed with MRH, they really do have the best quality oils and butters!
Michelle in Montana
Oh My Gosh! I found this amazing blog while looking. For natural hot oil treatment tips;
I am smitten! In love, even! Then I see this give-away and everything in the “basket”resonates with me and my lifestyle. I have been dabbling in creating my own beauty products. INSPIRATION !!!!! But I don’t tweet or play Facebook….
Sandra Gooch
I would absolutely love to try everything on this list! Would especially appreciate the gift certificate.
mcnappy
I would use the heck out of all of it! But, I would definitely use the Cocoa and Shea Bittersweet Orange Peels Dipped in Chocolate Lip Balm first. It might be just the thing to lure a hottie in for a liplock 🙂
andrea
Thank you so much for the giveaway – it looks awesome. So many wonderful things I’d like to try in that bunch. My first choice would probably be the lemon lime shave balm. Can’t wait to check out a few of the new companies in this group.
Layla
I was going to pick something I most wanted, I swear, but now that I’ve seen it all. I ALL LOOKS SO AMAZING. But let’s see: the linen spray and the whipped cocoa butter lotion.

Am posting your link to Etsy on facebook, have repinned at Pintrest…Lordy, did I say I want it all?? Seriously, I want your face oil since I’m too lazy to make it, but on to the wonderful basket..
Eco Nuts 100-load soap nuts would be my first choice.
Kandy
Yes ALL of it…..everything looks so very wonderful!
LauraB
I’d love to try any of the Meadow’s Own products. But everything looks wonderful!
LaviniaM
All of IT! okay, maybe the MR gift card just because i worked so hard at building my beauty “pantry” and i still need a bunch of stuff to add to it. that should cover most of what’s left 🙂 Thanks so much for sharing!
Jo Shontz

Oh man, the fact that you’re opening this to Canada is beyond the pale awesome and thank you so much for that. Excited about ALL OF IT. But definitely the eco soap nuts. And Mountain Rose Herbs which I have bought from (until I found a local supplier) and love. And, really, all of it. Like like like. Thank you.
Michael el Palito
The Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate sounds the most awesome to me. Coconut milk soap sounds interesting too. 🙂
Jeni Roberts-Galow
I’ve never one anything but here it goes. I just discovered your blog from pinterst and have been hooked ever since. Thank you for what you do!! All of the products sound amazing. The ones that get me excited are….the linen spray, shaving balm and lavender soap. Thanks again for this amazing luxurious opportunity.
Ashton
Although everything looks GREAT, I am most excited about the lemon-lime shave balm and the MRH gift certificate would be a splendid bonus. Thanks for doing this, Crunchy Betty!
Courtney
This is so great! I can’t decide which I like best…it’s a tie between the Mountain Rose Herbs giftcard and the bergamont linen spray!
Leela
Wow, this looks great! I’m especially excited for the Mountain Rose Herbs certificate but also for the Eco Nuts. Been wanting to try out Eco Nuts for laundry soap.
Wendy
All of it sounds amazing, but that gift certificate would be really great! I would love to try out all these products or give some to my family and friends!
wildchilded
How could I choose just one?! They all look soooo delicious!!!
tracy
I want it all!!!!
megan miller
oh. my. word. what an insane giveaway! i hope i am lucky enough to win! of course what i want the most is the mountain rose herbs gift cert! how awesome! thanks for hosting such an amazing giveaway!
Ashley Robinson
Everything sounds amazing! I’m not actually sure what I’m most excited about. Is it bad to say the gift card? As much as I love supporting small, independent, natural companies, I also love making natural beauty supplies at home. I mean, that’s what brought me to Crunchy Betty in the first place. 🙂
Dana Kay Bach
Ummm, everything, absolutely everything. I’ve been lurking on this blog for a while now, I’d love to actually try some of the natural living ideas! Oh and the gift certificate, definately the gift certificate
Meredith
I would love to have the laundry stuff (and everything else too)! My husband is super sensitive to most laundry things so I am always on the look out for new stuff to get our clothes clean that doesn’t make him itch.
Kelly
So…all of it! I am especially interested in the soap nuts and natural deoderant. What a generous gift, and a fun way to find new & effective products!
Jayme Miller
All of it! Especially the soap nuts because I have been wanting to try those.
Betty Odgers
All of it for sure!
DJ
Eco Nuts 4-oz Bergamot Linen Spray is my favorite, because if I win I will have it! I would not buy it for myself but would love to have it.
LindsayM
I’m a body product junkie, and even make a lot of my own, so it is very difficult to pick just one, but I’d LOVE to try
Chagrin Valley’s 7-oz Coconut Milk Shampoo Bar! A lot of commercial shampoos make my scalp do funny things…
Rachel
Excited about everything, but would love to try the coconut milk shampoo bar!! 🙂
Sandra
Goodness I feel greedy, but I want it all!
Naima Clarke
The whipped Shea butter from Cocoa and Shea! Plus everything else…come to mama basket of goodies!
DeeJay Anderson
First I have to say that I am fairly new to your blog and absolutely love everything you do/write! I am just starting to make my life more crunchy and the basket would be a way for me to jump right in! I am most excited about Eco Nuts 100-load soap nuts and the Chagrin Valley Summer Rain Organic Cream Deodorant… ok the deodorant is the thing I am interested in the most because I’ve been dying to stop using conventional but haven’t had the guts to try your homemade recipe yet. Keep up all the amazing tips and tricks for a crunchy lifestyle!
Cheryl
Pick me! Pick me! I’m newish to this whole crunchy thing and would LOVE to try all those wonderful products! I’m most interested in the Chagrin Valley Soap Shampoo bar and of course the Mountain Rose Herbs gift card. I have an order from them currently in transit to me but there is so much more I could order. Thanks for the fun giveaway!
Rena
All of it 🙂
Kelly
I am most excitied about the products from Marmalade Hills, but really, who wouldn’t be excited about it all?
lindsay
most excited about everything cocoa and shea!
Laura
Wow! So many comments! It means less chance of winning but clearly you’re pretty popular! I’m clearly pumped about all of it, but not to copy the Laura below me, I really want to try the Meadow’s Own deodorant. I always have such a hard time finding a natural one that actually works and seem to cycle through them on a regular basis. Otherwise I am excited about all of it. Keep the posts coming – I love trying new things after you have already vetted them! FYI – I’m doing an activated charcoal aloe vera mask after I bought AC to whiten my teeth (which it is doing) and my skin is so clear it’s ridiculous. My house is pretty grey and dirty though 🙂
Amanda B
I couldn’t even choose! All of it, for sure!
Connie
I would definitely want all of it!! Though especially the CV products. This basket is a little too much to even believe it really exists ;_;
Carrie
I would love to try the soap nuts, I keep reading about them and am curious!
Kathy L.
Oh my if I have to choose I’m thinking the products from Eco Nuts! But I would love it all!
Kelly
I think I’m nuts about the Soap Nuts, but I will happily try everything!!
s-j
wow, what treats! all of it sounds awesome, but i think i’m most interested in the natural deoderants and the pot de joie.
juliet
I am almost out of my chagrin valley shampoo bar and not having to order one would make me all wiggly in the tail area! and to try all the other stuff? heaven!
Natalie Immel
I would love to try that tooth paste and Cocoa and Shea bars! I MUST have that certificate to Mountain Rose Herbs!
Brooke
I would love all of it, but really want to try the toothpaste. My children still swallow theirs and I just cringe each time. I’d love to have a safe alternative…but I agree with everyone that all of it would be amazing. And I also agree with everyone that your blog is in my top two! Thanks for all you do .
BarbaraG
Mountain Rose Herbs Gift Certificate! Wow! But the whole ‘basket’ is wonderful!
Mindy Schmaltz
My fav has to be cocoa and shea or the GC!! :} i hoooope i win!!
Danie
Wow, what a (not-a-basket) Basket!!
I’m in love with absolutely everything definitely want to try the Meadow’s Own toothpaste. I’ve made the switch to natural deoderants, soaps, no ‘poo and moisturizers but still have one blasted tube of regular ol’ toothpaste to burn before finding SLS free alternatives.
Thanks for such a fantastic opportunity!
Lesa Forbis
I want all of it but the Marmalade Hills Tea Tree Foot Soak sounds wonderful.
Katie Holeman
Oh my word! What a basket! The gift card to Mountain Rose Herbs alone would be divine– combined with all those other goodies, it’s enough to make me drool!
Treena
It’s like a candy store for naturally clean geeks.
Jessica Osburn Cockrum
Amazing! I really want the Coconut Milk Shampoo Bar. I LOVE shampoo bars so much and I bet this one smells so yummy! Your drawing ends on my birthday so maybe I’ll get a little birthday luck. 🙂
Karly
I would love to try that soap! Thanks for having this giveaway!
Lori Pegg
Every single thing would be my favourite! And the sweet bergamot linen spray sounds divine.
Rho
Can’t. Choose. Too. Much. Wonderfulness. I will say that I’ve been looking for a good organic shampoo bar, so the coconut milk bar is looking pretty enticing.
jlfowler83
The entire basket would be awesome, but what tickles me most is the soap nuts and the MRH gift certificate! OMG! I hope I win! I appreciate all you do!
catnbirdsmum
I would love to try the econuts! I hear they are fantastic with cloth diapers 🙂
Brenda schmidt
The lemon lime shaving balm sounds like it would feel so lovely on hot, tired legs…mmmmmmm!
Elye
All of it! Definitely all of it! I absolutely love your blog and thank you so much for introducing us to all these amazing products
Becca
Well…if I had to pick just ONE, it would be the Mountain Rose Herb gift certificate! I absolutely love that place, it is seriously my personal candy store!
Mary F
I’m practically drooling over all this goodness! I would seriously be excited about it all, but I have been curious about soap nuts in particular.
Julia H
Well, it’s hard to pick just one thing, but….I’d have to say the Coconut Milk Shampoo Bar by Chagrin Valley Soap. Pretty much my favourite thing in the entire world is travelling – I want to see the whole world! And, you know, I don’t want to drag a super-heavy bag around the world, so I try to get all the way to far-off places like Vietnam with only a carry-on bag! All I can think of is how great it would be to have a solid – and natural! – shampoo bar like this for travelling!!! No more exploding shampoo in your suitcase! No more issues with getting liquids past the TSA!
MAE
the products are all wonderful. WONDERFUL! but i have to be honest, I LOVE Mountain Rose Herbs so much that the idea of a gift certificate from them is nirvana to me, especially since i need to order more lavender flowers so i can make the lavender rosemary hair rinse that you posted a while back! it’s my favorite conditioner, and i just gave a bottle to a friend of mine who loved it too. i recommend Mountain Rose Herbs to people all the time, i totally agree with you that they are one of the best businesses out there for well-loved, high quality herbs, oils, and so on.
thanks for this giveaway, and for introducing us to so many awesome products and businesses!
MAE
PS – I LOVE SOAPNUTS!! And found Econuts when I was doing some extra research to do a blog post of my own about them. If there is one thing I want to convince the world to use, it’s soapnuts hands down.
Sherri
I can’t lie, really want the Mountain Rose Herbs Gift certificate but would also enjoy the other gifts in the basket. Thanks for your blog and the gift basket giveaway!
Carli
Every single thing looks amazing!!!
Lane
This is a toughie…*scratches head*…I’m gonna have to go with the ‘Cocoa and Shea Pot De Joie’ because it’s whipped shea butter lotion, and doesn’t that just sound divine?
Ashley Williams
By FAR I’m most excited for the gift certificate!! I’ve been wanting to start making some of your recipes but have no essential or carrier oils and every time I try to get some at a store, they’re closed or I can’t find any! After that, the oil from Marmalade Hills looks heavenly! And natural toothpaste seems interesting!
Danielle
Most definitely want to try the Coconut Milk Shampoo Bar, and the whole rest of the box as well!!!
Rachel Katz Maeroff
I’m probably most excited about the
Cocoa and Shea Pot De Joie. My skin has been crazy dry lately and their products sound amazing. The whole “basket” is fabulous!
Kellie
Nice. I am excited to try the Meadow’s Own Vanilla/Sweet Orange Deodorant and/or the Peppermint Face Spritz!
Laura S
I would be most excited for the gift certificate and for the soap nuts. It would be fun to try out all the other stuff, too! Thanks for hosting!
Erin Heather Campbell Scotland
Cocoa and Shea Lavender Castille soap sounds VERY exciting but really it all is. ALSO THAT AMAZING CERTIFICATE FOR MOUNTAIN ROSE HERBS my goodness.
Soli
I think I’d most want the Chagrin Valley products, and who could say no to that gift certificate?!
MShull
Love your blog, and thanks for the chance to win such a huge basket of awesomeness 🙂 I’d love to try the shampoo bar and work on winning my husband over to the crunchy side of things with the shave balm.
SarahD.
I don’t even know where to start! The Eco Nuts stuff seems really cool, but honestly, so does the rest! As a mom of 3, I don’t often buy things for myself. And if I do win, I will share!
Laura O.
Definitely the deodorants. I am tired of buying ones that don’t work!
Nicolle
Good clean products! Sign me up!!
Pri
OHmigosh this is lovely product heaven! I am so glad I found your blog…my sister is trying the ACV/sugar scrub on her arms right now. As for all the goodies, I think my favorite has got to be the gift certificate…then I can make anything!!! Thanks!
Catherine
Awesome give away – even if there’s no basket included – hah! I would love everything, though probably the Mountain Rose herbs gift certificate would be my favorite. 🙂
Clarissa McPherson
I would most definitely love the $65 gift certificate to Mountain Rose Herbs!! I am ADDICTED!!!! The coconut milk shampoo bar and the bergamot linen spray would also be crazy awesome to try out! Did I mention…YOU ARE A GOD!!! I love you!
Talia Lumpkin
Umm…favorites would be coconut shampoo bar, bergamot linen spray, Mountain Rose Herb gift card…etc. etc! It all sounds wonderful!
Maggie Brashier
While it all looks amazing, it’s the Pot de Joie and the MRH gift certificate that I would love to get my hands on the most. But the more crunchy goodness, the merrier!
Rachel
Would really enjoy ALL of them! Beauty products for free? For me? That are healthy, and lovely! That would be so nice.
Christina
Meadows Own – always trying to find the perfect deodorant!
Heather
I covet the foot balm! I’m pounding the pavement at work much of the time and my feet just take a beating.
Teresa Lewis
I am excited about the whole basket.
Kelly Mills
I ended up ordering a bunch of stuff from Chagrin Valley! I also really liked the Meadow’s Own Etsy store. I’m interested in all of it but would really like to try the deodorants listed.
Sarah M
I’m most excited for the shampoo bar and the toothpaste! I have yet to make my own natural toothpaste, so this is perfect.
Julie
I am so excited about natural deodorant, but I still haven’t made my own yet so this would be great to win! And the stuff from Cocoa and Shea looks fabulous!
Mandy Hutson Sergent
The gift certificate of course!! Could finally get a jump start on the herbally things I’ve been wanting to try…
JD
The Cocoa & Shea soap – I need it!
Jen
I think the Pot De Joie from Cocoa and Shea looks divine! I’m interested to try Meadow’s Own Vanilla and Sweet Orange Deodorant too! If I don’t win I will definitely be picking these up anyway 🙂
steph
most excited about… the shampoo bar! and soap nuts!!
Karla
wow wow wow! I’d love to try anything and EVERYTHING in the basket!!! It looks FANTASTIC!
kirsten
the whipped shea boddy butter sounds amazing. thankyou for this giveaway! my mom introduced me to your blog and i absolutly love all of your recipes and remities!
Monica
Cocoa and shea sound heavenly especially as my skin has been very dry lately 🙂
Megan Riordan
Can I saw that I am excited for the deoderant samples?! The whole basket looks great, thanks for the giveaway!
Tabetha
I would love to win all of it! But really would love the deodorant and soap products!!
kmcg
I love and want all of it!
Joanne Gregory
I want ALL of it!
kim
The foot soak/balm sounds delicious! The gift certificate wouldn’t hurt either. Love your blog and have learned a lot from it!
Lori
Chagrin Valley Soap coconut milk shampoo bar. My hair needs help (naturally, of course!!)
Laara
The whole basket looks wonderful, but the Chagrin Valley shampoo bar is honestly what I would most like to try. Shampoo bars work better in my hair, but so far any ones I have found are too scented. The coconut milk one looks lovely.
Jennifer
The Cocoa and Shea products sound great (as with everything else).
Tara
I’m most excited about the gift certificate (shopping spree!!) and the deodorants, ’cause I really need to find a natural one that actually works for me. This has been the hardest thing in going totally crunchy!
Alicia Bourget
Whoa that is a crunchilishious giveaway! I think I would be most excited about the Eco Nut line! I am new to the crunchy world and a basket with a little of everything would be a nice way to start 🙂
Erin Werkhoven
I think all of this sounds amazing, but I’m most curious about the soap nuts!
Solange
It all sounds fantastic! The MRH g.c. would be great for ingredients I’d like to try that are in recipes you’ve posted. I’d also love to sample the other high quality products in the giveaway since I hadn’t heard of them before. Thanks for your awesome site Crunchy Betty!
Karen
Everything looks fantastic but i am really interested in the soap nut products because I have never heard of those! Thanks and I LOVE Crunchy Betty!!!!
Catherine Richard
Oh man, I would love the Bergamot Linen spray by Soap Nuts. It’s one of my absolute favorite smells!
Sheila K.
I would like to win all of it because I would like to try everything in this amazing package!
skkorman AT bellsouth DOT net
Janet Roderick
Wow, what a great give-away! The Eco Nuts soap nuts are something I’ve wanted to try and the gift certificate is very exciting. (where is the space that says “email”? I don’t see a way to give you my email address without giving it to everyone.)
Megan
I would super love all of it, of course. (you have to be made of styrofoam not to be even a little happy about being crunchy). I must say, however, I am most tempted by the Chagrin Valley shampoo bar…Looooooove them! And the MRH gift certificate….also looove them. What generocity! 🙂
[email protected]
Chagrin Valley 7-oz Coconut Milk Shampoo Bar….that is what I want. Please and thanks!
Sarai Wilson
Obviously, I want ALL of it. But I am most excited about the MRH gift certificate. A chance to finally buy all of the things Crunchy Betty has made me want to buy this year? Yes, please!!!!
[email protected]
Mel
Def econuts AND everything else too!!
Thanks Betty!!
Roz Ann Biondo
I would love the Cocoa and Shea Pot De Joie, as I have not been able to afford anything for my crocodile skin for a good few years now due to loss of everything I owned and more. Would just love it!
Ren Teusch
Ooohh I need me some new laundry soap and that looks great!
Kaylyn
I would be really excited to try the natural deodorant as I’ve been using salt deodorant for a while now and sometimes it works, sometimes it could do better 😉 Also the Cocoa and Shea pot de joie sounds intriguing, I’ve used plain shea butter and it was too greasy alone but I’d like to try their version. I’ve been lurking for awhile now and this is my first time posting, so I’d like to say: Thank you for this blog Betty, you are such an inspiration!!!
Red
I would love to play with all of them. The RMH gift certificate would be great all by itself!
angie lou who
Ok…generic answer…ALL OF IT! I make my own items (body butter, tooth powder, lotion bars, lip balm, and all manner of house cleaners) and I LOVE LOVE LOVE trying other people’s things to see how I can improve the things I make for myself and my family! [email protected]
Brandi
WOW! I just found your site today..slow I know right. I could put everything in that basket to good use! I could even use the basket ( I know, I know it’s not included darn) I think the gift certificate would be nice since I desperately need to restock my EO supply.
Sara Leasure
Marmalade hills products look amazing! The whole basket is awesome!
Diana Huynh
I want to win all of it! I’m excited about all natural products. Even though I make the majority of what my family uses myself. It would be nice to get to pamper myself with the creations of others. 🙂
Amanda
It all looks AMAZING but I am drawn to the eco nut stuff!!
Ashley Strachey
Ooooh I want that shaving balm, gift certificate, and EVERYTHING ELSE!
Come on randomnizer, love me!
I’m on my phone, and can’t tell if my email is showing up…. So here it is: [email protected]
Serena
I am pretty excited about all of the products, but I have to say that I am the most excited about the Eco Nuts. I am a wife and mom who does a lot of laundry. I have a 16 year old son, need I say more?! Thanks for putting all of this together!
Hope
OMG This all looks amazing.
Elly

my6sprouts
Can’t wait to try these great products.
LindaPinda
I was giggling so excitedly over each and every product, I passed out. Now that I’ve recovered, I’ll say that the Mountain Rose Herbs Gift Certificate for $65 (oops – passed out again) would be like having a wish granted from one of my fairies.
Linda
Heather H :) :) :)
I really like ALL OF IT, but especially am wanting to try the Eco Nuts laundry soap products. I LOVE natural things to wash my clothes and keep ’em clean 😉 Thanks for this awesome giveaway. Love and hugs from the ocean shores of CAlifornia, Heather 🙂 🙂 🙂
Jocelyn
Mountain Rose Herbs oh please oh please oh please let it be me!!! Being one of your devoted deciples, i am constantly buying up new base ingdedients and $65 goes an awfully long way at MRH!
Tanja
Marmalade Hills foot products are for moi! I love anything to do with feet and all the lavender products are definitely some of my faves. Hook me up Crunchy B!
Michelle
Eco Nuts, soap nuts sounds awesome. But I would love to try all the natural products.
Katharine T
This is about the most awesome giveaway I’ve ever seen! Wow! I want to say “EVERYTHING” but most of all I’m excited about the MRH gift certificate and the toothpaste from Meadow’s Own because I’ve never tried natural toothpaste before. And you all, I’m happy to say I already knew about Chagrin Valley Soap and their products are definitely as good as Betty said.
Meghann
Would love to try many of those things, but the Econuts are one product that I’d love to try. We cloth diaper, so that would be awesome to have for my stash! Also LOVE MRH and have an ongoing wishlist for stuff to get from them!
MK
I would love to try the toothpaste and soap nuts. The Mountain Rose gift certificate would get used in a split second, too!
Meg
Soap, soap, soap. I’m a soap freak…..sometimes I go into my soap stash and just pull them out one at a time and smell them. Sad, I know.
crystal
Yup… All of it. You’re so crunchy, you.
Gayle
Thanks for all the product recommendations, I’m always looking for the best products I can buy for my family. I have added all these companies to my acceptable list!
shannonB.
I’d be really excited to win the gift cert. b/c I have a wish list a mile long from there (and no cha-ching to buy it with), but the Grapefruit body scrub sounds awesome!
bella
I would love to win and I would love all of it! I live in the middle east so I have no opportunity to try amazing products like these. (btw my brother lives in the US and comes and visits ever few months so I would get them eventually!)
Aya
Cocoa and Shea does sound amazing, but I really want to try the soap nuts since I’ve never used them before! And gift certificate would be awesome! I’d get sandalwood eo for husbands products, I love it on him! He left a sweater at my house when we started dating and I would put it on and bask in the sandalwoody goodness that was just “him” (and no, that’s not creepy)
Lauren Carnathan
Although I want it all, I have to say the item that gets me most excited is the MRH gift certificate! I make my own soaps and love everything I have ever ordered from MRH- I can’t imagine what goodness I could whip up with a $65 gift certificate!!
Penandra Pennington
Since I’m new to this whole Natural stuff, I would love to try ALL of the items in the “basket” . . . . and will certainly visit the web pages of the business making the donations. I’m learning so much and am grateful folks are willing to share their knowledge, expertise, experiments, etc. Thank you for the opportunity (even if I don’t win!)
Alisha
I’m intrigued by the soap nuts! I think I heard about those a couple years ago, but never tried them.
Nicole Ruehlow
Love the sounds of all of this. But mostly the foot soak since my feet are so gross this summer!
Brenda Rodrigo
Hi! I just happened to stumble on to your website for the first time yesterday! Lucky me!! I would love to try the Chagrin Valley 7-oz Coconut Milk Shampoo Bar! I have become somewhat allergic to regular shampoos and I have attempted to create my own natural shampoo but it doesn’t compare to the great products in the Big Natural Basket! I hope I win!
Vivian Montanez Quinones
All of the Chagrin Valley products sound amazing. I would love any one of them.
Mary
I am SUPER EXCITED ABOUT ALL OF IT. Seriously, though, I am. Everything in this basket looks incredible! Thanks for hosting such a lovely giveaway 🙂
Sandy
Oh, my head…I would love everything in the basket! But especially, I think, the gift card to Mountain Rose Herbs. I need more tamanu oil, and I want some bee’s wax, and there are so many other amazing products on their website. But, I probably have 0.0% chance of winning it since my comment is #1629 (or something like that). But I had to try!!!
Michele T
I am excited about all of the products! I love to try new things and have just recently been sent to you by a dear friend. Together we are trying out new products that are healthier for our bodies and we are finding some gems out there, with the help of your site! I would love to win and share the news and products with everyone I know! Fingers crossed!
Aubrey Earle Acosta
Ooooooh, shampoo bars!!! It would be fantastic to win and finish kicking my plastic habit for personal hygiene, and I would love to share the other products with family who is thinking about going green as well. My hubby and I are thinking of starting our own small business in this field, so the gift cert from Mountain Rose would be wonderful, to get essential oils and other ingredients we need for homemade products!!
Alexandra Cosgrove
I’m most excited about the Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate! Thanks for this opportunity 🙂
Janis Miller
All of it!! I would be thrilled to have all of it and I already have picked out what I would buy with my gift certificate from Mountain Rose Herbs!!! wooohooo! Thank you for this great giveaway, Crunchy Betty,
Chagrin Valley,
Eco Nuts,
Cocoa and Shea,
Meadow’s Own,
Marmalade Hills, and Mountain Rose Herbs. This is a fantastic giveaway! 🙂
Gigi
Oooh lala all looks so yummy! Totally want to try the soap nuts! Not to eat though..fer laundry. Silly.
Melissa
Ahhh! I want all of it, but especially the grapefruit scrub. Yum!
CathyC
Wow – it all looks like it would provide months of awesomeness and self-indulgence (always a major good thing). The one product that I would most like to get my dry, cracked, neglected hands into is the Pot De Joie.
Elle
I want to win all of it! What a wonderful giveaway 🙂
Paula
I want it all baby! But would love to have that Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate!
Dyanne Spease
ALL OF IT!!!! Please, please oh pretty please!!
Alice
Yummy soaps. And the Bergamot Linen Spray sounds very intriguing. Oh, and Pot De Joie. My goodness, all of it.
Bonnie
Mmmmm…..the pots de joie sounds delish, and the Medows Own grapefruit body scrub makes me smell sunshine in a jar. Oh, so hard to decide………so, I pick both. I’d love the MRH certificate as well, but since I spend most of my money there anyway, I thought I’d choose something(s) that I haven’t tried. Thanks for highlighting these items for us.
Sara Wells
I am most excited about the liquid laundry detergent. Thanks for hosting this!
melissa e
I would love to try the
Meadow’s Own Grapefruit Body Scrub. I bet is smells amazing!
Amanda
I would love it ALL! I’m so in love with MRH, the gift certificate would be great.
LittleLaura
I can’t wait to have time to check out the websites. The summer rain cream deodorant sounds lovely! But of course I wouldn’t turn down the big basket.
Teresa
Other than the Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate, which is just awesome, I would be most excited about winning the Eco Nuts products because I have been wanting to try out soap nuts for a while now, but just don’t have the guts to go out and actually buy a bunch.
Jessica
I’m especially intrigued with the soap nuts. I’ve read about them before and would love to try them but still haven’t! All of these things look great, though.
Larissa
OOoooooh!!! Sounds so lovely! I’d love Cocoa and Shea’s Pot De Joie most, but everything sounds delightful.
Mandy McDowell
I would love to try all of it! I love trying new proucts 🙂
Beth
I especially want to try the deoderant (this is a homemade item that I have yet been successful with – my versions don’t control odor well, cause me the breakout, make a giant mess on my clothes…. arrrgghhh!!!!) and the soap nuts. Trying to talk hubby into planting a soap nut tree for me so we can have our own in about 11 years! All of the other goodies would just be icing on the cake!
Staci
The Bergamot Linen Spray….. I ran out of my chamomile spray a couple of years ago and haven’t found a replacement yet. Super excited to try that one out!
Evie Lorenson
I want the soap bars!! It all looks wonderful…like you could dump it all in a big tub of hot water and soak it all up forever! Well…maybe not.
Nicole
All of it looks so good, I’m not sure where I would begin!!
Katharina Huntoon
I had just discovered Crunchy Betty- love the name BTW. I have been browsing the posts to every end. Wonderful, whimsical blog! Thanks Crunchy Betty!
Katie Auman Defibaugh
oh! let’s see… i think i’d be most excited to try either the shampoo bar or the soap nuts. i’m curious to see how my laundry would turn out with the soap nuts, particularly my whites.
the k's
I’m greedy and want to try it alll
Monique
That whipped shea butter looks fantastic! With my super dry summer skin, that would come in handy! With that said, I am intrigued by everything. I am just beginning to try to look into less processed, more natural ways to care for myself. This looks like it would give me a good introduction to more than a few things!
mollie
So EXCITED!!!! I love trying new natural products and I’m always looking for the next best one. I have two very large gardens (which I love) but between hot summer days, clay dirt, and tough weeds, my skin and fingers take a beating. Thank you for your blog!
Jules
I cant decide! Its all awesome! I found your blog about a month ago and LOVE IT! Thank you and thank you for the chance to win!
Angela OKane
I would loooove it all, but the most exciting to me is the lavender soap. I’m a elementary teacher, and it’s back to school week, and w.o.w. could i use lavender anything to help me de-stress!!
Monique Waugh Fee
I would love to try all of it, but since I’m already a fan of Mountain Rose Herbs, I already know how I could spend that gift certificate!! Love, love, love reading your blog!!
Jennifer S.
My pregnant belly would love the cocoa and shea whipped lotion! This post also gave me some great Christmas gift ideas!
rsteffen
ALL OF IT!!!!
Cathie
I can’t wait to try the Soap Nuts! Pick me, pick me!
Anne
I am really coveting the Pot De Joie whipped shea butter! My dry skin is crying out for it. Will definitely visit all the sites to see what else they have. And I’ve also been hearing about the soap nuts and would love to give them a try.
Lee Bishop Hawthorne
I’m a newby….so I am super excited about all of it! This would be a great kick-off for me!
Jessica Skipper
OH MY GOSH! How am I supposed to decide? Several products there I’ve already been considering trying!
Monica
You had me at Cocoa and Shea. Addict, I am. I have always been allergic to cocoa butter lotions but, once I went organic & raw. OMG! My skin has never been so amazing. Granted, I have won the genetics lottery as far as teeth, skin & hair but, I’m nearly 40 and still get carded. OMG. I’m nearly 40. I so need this basket to get me through the pain. LOL!
Thanks for the contest. Enter me, please!

I’m extremely curious to try them all! I’m always in the market for natural/non-harsh replacements to use on my post-chemo skin.
Dusti
I’d be most excited about the MRH certificate! I have some syrups, salves and such I am wanting to make in preparation for winter. 🙂

Since I haven’t tried a biodegradable laundry soap yet, I would most like to try the Eco Nuts 100-load soap nuts. The Mountain Rose Herb gift certificate would be great too. Thanks for the opportunity.
Kesha K.
I would LOVE the Cocoa and Shea soaps! You just gave me more places to drain my bank account, hehe. All for good, of course.
I’ve used Chagrin Valley soaps, and I thoroughly support their business. They (along with CB) inspired confidence in all things natural to satisfy my needs. Highly recommend, and I hope CB readers check them out.
Jaclyn

Essential oils are so, like, essential so I’m very keen on the gift card but it all looks super!

I definitely want to try the Cocoa and Shea Pot De Joie because it seems like it would be very moisturizing and decadent, especially for the winter time when I struggle with dry skin.
Posie
Oooh, all of it! But I think I’d check out the Pot de Joie first. I’m looking for a lovely, natural whipped shea butter to use on me and my baby.
I’m off to check out these websites. 🙂
P.S. Even if I don’t win I really love your giveaways because I learn about the businesses that you love for their natural-ness. Thanks Crunchy Betty!
Chrystal King
All of it!! but, I just found this blog when I found the lip balm, then natural deodorant recipes, so really interested in trying a natural deodorant…
Michelle McMillen
Oh my. I have to choose the ONE thing that makes me most excited in this giveaway? I guess it would be the (two) deodorants, because I so hate to use the bad stuff with aluminum but it’s all that has worked for me. Hoping to find a healthier alternative….
Heidi
I love your blog and I love this giveaway! I’m dying to try the Meadow’s Own Grapefruit Body Scrub out most of all…grapefruit is one of my favorite smells. Thanks thanks thanks!
AspenRosie
ALL. I want it all! ‘Specially that coconut shampoo bar and the Pot de Joie~ it all sounds so absolutely luscious. I would climb in my bathtub and not leave for a week just trying all this out!

Meagen Edwards-Nichols
I would looove to win this “basket”!! You made the pot de joie sound fabulous. Oh and something about a rose herb gift certificate. Love love love this post!

Whitney
It all looks amazing! And I want to say thank YOU, Betty, for everything you have done to help us all in our crunchy adventures. I have had my eyes opened and my family’s health changed for good since coming across your blog in search of natural glass cleaner, of all things.
Kathy Martinez
I want the soap nut stuff.

De Annna

Soap Nuts!
Fawn

Tara S.
Crunchy Betty, you’re so amazing! You have truly inspired me to be crunchy. Thanks for this great give away. I’m dying to try that Cocoa and Shea Pot De Joie!
SarahBee
Holy shnikey! How about everything?! Alright, to narrow it down – the shampoo bar. It’s been such a PITA to find something that doesn’t make my scalp flare up. Also, the RMH GC; what can I say? You’ve listed so many nifty things I want to experiment with!
GlassTrap
I would LOVE EVERYTHING in the basket! Especially the toothpaste and shampoo bar. Can’t wait to try these products, even if I don’t win!
elizabet
Really no way to pick just one favorite – I want ’em all! Very intrigued by the Bittersweet Orange Peels Dipped in Chocolate Lip Balm – sounds yummy. All the soaps, spritzes, toothpastes, and the foot soak, oh yes, the foot soak!
Connor Novy
The body scrub! And the lip balm. I like feeling soft. It might be a bit of a problem.
Chloe
I am so glad that you said this was allowed: ALL OF IT! I am such a personal product junkie–even helped to develop a line–but since going crunchy I’ve been just nuts and bolts about it. This would bring back the fun!
Anastacia
Oh. My. Gah. I want all of it so badly it brings out the 1980s valley girl in me!!! O.O
Stephanie
Oh my gosh, I’m experimenting with deodorants and Chagrin Valley’s is a must-have! And cocoa and shea…I’m down for each, every, and anything that has to do with them! And a gift card to MRH. I DIE! These are all awesome gifts, thank you so much, Crunchy Betty 🙂 you’re simply amazing.
Sam DeLong
I want the Coca and Shea soaps… oh please please please please please….. well, actually, I want it ALL!!! The soaps, they sounds fabulous, and I love to make soap.
[email protected]
Brittany Jaso
Cocoa and Shea! HUGE fan!
Laura
$65 to Mountain Rose Herbs looks great! That site has so many great products, including essential oils, which I use in the beauty products I make. Thanks for such a great site!
Kara
All of it! but most excited about the foot soak and foot scrub from Marmalade. My feet were made for walking but sometimes they need more love than my regular lotion can give them.
Yay!! Thank you!
Jennifer K
I want it all but I really, really want the Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate. I need to order from them and the order is looking like several hundred dollars, for real. I absolutely love your site. I just found it, subscribed to it and found this giveaway all in the same hour! Thanks
Courtney
I am a relatively new reader and just love your blog! All of the products look and sound amazing but I have to say that the Pot De Joie from Cocoa and Shea looks divine!
Mary
The soaps at Chagrin Valley or at Cocoa and Shea look wonderful. Thank you for the opportunity to win and try these wonderful products. The gift certificate from Mountain Rose is great too.
Rachel Campanoli
I’m SUPER excited about that shampoo bar! It’s the one thing I haven’t found a good natural replacement for! (read: one that works for me in all my current situations and hair needs, lol) So even if I don’t win this incredible giveaway, I’m sooo getting one to try out anyway!
JennaElizabeth
Must have soap nuts!!!! I’m so excited about these I can hardy stand it– I have an 8 month old with eczema and have been trying to rid our house of all ‘detergents’ and this would be the perfect thing for her laundry!
JennK.
Every last thing seems amazing! happy to find your blog 🙂
Anna
I really love all of it! However, I like the deoderants and toothpaste the best because I always feel guilty about not being organic with that stuff. It’s so expensive!
Madeleine
ALL OF IT!!!! love crunchy betty so much, i’m always recommending your articles to friends and family!!
Steph
There’s so much to be excited about! My total conversion to the crunchy way has been slower than I’d like due to lack of funds, so I’m really excited to see the soap nuts and the toothpaste, and I’ve been browsing around for a nice natural soap and the silk & roses one sounds sooo luxurious. And of course, I always love trying new lip balms!
Thanks for all your work in putting this thing together for us!
Stacy
Oooh, it’s a toss up between the Eco Nuts soap nuts (I’ve been wanting to try them) and the Meadow’s Own deodorant (I’m ready to wean off the harsh chemicals).
Teddi Taylor
What an impressive haul! I’m excited about all of it, but a special highlight is the Mountain Rose Herbs GC, as I’d love to start making more of my own stuff and that seems to be the place to get just about everything!
[email protected]
Chagrin Valley Coconut Milk Shampoo Bar. Fingers crossed (cuz I like to win things) anyhow my daughter is enthusiastic about Crunchy Betty and now I subscribe and here I am trying to winnnnn!!!!! all the good stuff in the ‘basket’ hehehe.

Hank-Megan Sutherland
I would love to try the Eco Nuts Laundry Soap!
Sylvie McCracken
Eco Nuts!!! I would do mad amounts of laundry asap upon receiving- I promise!
Liz
It seems so greedy to say that I want all of it…but I do. I want ALL of it! But extra especially the Pot de Joie and the natural deodorant…b/c it’s not at all clear that I’ll ever get around to making my own. Deodorant, that is.
Melissa
I’m Interested in all the products, I’m just starting out with a clean natural living so it would be wonderful to sample all of these products to figure out what I like best and what my family likes best. Thanks so much!
Shannan
Winning this would be awesome!! Over the past 9 months (since I became pregnant), I have been aiming to adopt more and more natural practices in my life (food, cleaning products, skin care), and I would be super excited to try everything in this basket! =D
Amanda
I’ve actually been looking lately for a good bar shampoo without plastic packaging, inspired by Beth Terry’s blog, so I’m most excited about the shampoo bar. But most of it sounds completely awesome. Particularly the Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate. And the toothpaste. And the Eco Nuts.
Also, I’ve never commented before, but just FYI, I adore your blog.
Sharon
What a wonderful collection! I am most excited about the Pot De Joie whipped shea butter and the bars of handmade soap.
Michele Kubat

Wow! Where to start – all of the products and companies are fabulous! If I have to choose one, I’d be most excited about Mountain Rose Herbs Gift Certificate! Thanks so much, Crunchy Betty, for your good work & information that benefits people & Mother Earth!
Bridget Doerr
Marmalade Hills! They are a business local to where I live!
Jeri
I love it all! But especially the Mountain Rose Herbs gift card!
Donna Forneris
I want it all! They all have great fb pages too!!
Stephanie L
Wow! These all look so very awesome, but the shampoo bar & Eco Nuts really caught my eye. I have definitely thought about trying them both in recent months. Oh, and who wouldn’t LOVE a gift certificate for Mountain Rose Herbs?!
p.s. I just love your blog!!
Jessica
I love everything coconut!!
W_Tea_E
I have been very curious abou the soap nuts since your post. All of it looks like so much fun! Yay crunchy!
Laura
I would be most excited to try the Chagrin Valley shampoo bars. I tried
to go no ‘poo, but I just couldn’t make it work for me, and I’ve been
searching for an alternative for months!
Crystal
Lavender, Coconut, Shea, Peppermint, Nuts! I’m nuts for all of this stuff! And Natural to boot! I love it and so appreciate your blog, fun pics and great information. Thanks for helping so many lead an naturally better life.
Charlie
All of it, yes most definitely all of it. Especially the deodorant, one thing I have not had the courage to try myself just yet, partially due to the nearest health food store being 1.5 hours away. Hence the Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate would be absolutely lovely too. Oh and the eco-nuts and the pot de joie (muahahaha-my bf is a psychology major and anyway I have a bet going with him, in which deliciously soft skin would make me win) I wish I may, I wish I might
Kaitlyn Dempsey
SOAPNUTS! I have heard so much about them and I really want to give them a try. But as a broke college kid, I’m trying to buy as little as possible.
Sam
I would love to try the Cocoa and Shea whipped shea butter lotion! Oh, Oh and the Cocoa and Shea lip balm!
Salvia
I’m most excited about the Cocoa and Shea soaps. I LOVE handmade soaps like that! Additionally, cocoa and shea happen to be two of my fave body butters! 😀
Jenny
What a great giveaway!! Of course I’m excited about “ALL OF IT!” :] but in particular the Mountain Rose Herb Gift Certificate! I am also a big fan of all natural toothpaste and deodorant! I’ve started making my own but would love to try the Meadow’s Own!
Tiffany
I would love all of it for sure, but I’m most excited about the Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate because they have great essential oils.
Becky W
Wow, I am excited about it all but especially the deodorants!
Cassie
After looking over the list I think I’m gonna have to say ALL of it!! haha
Rhonda
I would love to have all of it! I could really use the gift certificate to order more herbs & oils. This is a great give-away! Thanks!!
Amy
I want all of it, but especially the MRH gift certificate!!! 🙂
Kristin
I would love all of it!!! Your blog is my new go-to site for all things crunchy and natural…and I’m loving all of it!!!
sheyda
All the products sounds awesome, but I’m always on the hunt for a delicious smelling natural deodorant, so I’m most excited to try the Meadow’s Own Vanilla/Sweet Orange Deodorant.
JulieVK
Yay! Thanks for doing this giveaway! I don’t know about giggly, but I have been thinking about trying a natural deodorant for some time now…
Ginny
Oh my wow! Would love the Mountain Rose Herbs gc. But of course, want ALL of it! What a fantastic giveaway!
Anne
Oh my goodness gracious sakes’ alive….all of it!!! And maybe especially the Vanilla / Sweet Orange deodorant and the Bittersweet Orange Peels Dipped in Chocolate lip balm(I have a thing for orange..and chocolate..and natural deodorant, and I have a lip balm addiction) and geeeesh, yes, please, the Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate, and ok, just all of it! I adore reading your blog, thanks for fun and inspiration. Just bought activated charcoal for my teeth, thanks for that too, Crunchy Betty!
Sarah
Salted Carmel & whiskey truffles~you had me at Yum! We use herbs all the time from another source, so would luv to try M.Rose line to compare quality. It all looks Amazing!
Erica Mitchell
I would love to have all of it!
tealily
This all sounds wonderful. I’m really excited about the Chagrin Valley Soaps! They’re from very near my home town, and yet I had never heard of them. Very, very excited to check them out.
Mother Earth of four boys
The Eco Nut laundry soap is something I’ve been wanting to try, that being said I really love everything in that cute basket. I’m also really enjoying your site. Thanks for all the awesome helpful stuff. I was just turned on to this site and I’m positively in love. Thanks~!!!
Tara
Recently discovered your blog and have tried several of your recipes- deodorant, OCM, refreshing spray and even tried the activated charcoal on my teeth. I am so happy to have found you. I’m far from being crunchy, but every little bit helps! Also- would love to try all of them and excited to check out the grapefruit foot scrub.
justagirl
I would like to try the Eco Nuts Bergamot Linen Spray the most. I suffer from insomnia and wonder if a spritz on my pillow would help. So much better than pharmceuticals!
Darcy
All of it sounds so amazing, I would be ecstatic to have a chance to try all of it. 🙂
Meegs
Oh geez, I want to win it all!!
Sara
The toothpaste is what gets me giddy about this basket, but it all looks divine!
Kira Ru-djen
I AM SO EXCITED ABOUT ALL OF THIS! i live in a small town right now and its so difficult to find a lot of these products around– I am super excited about the Mountain Herb line–visiting their page/blog right after I hit enter! Thanks for the super awesome opportunity girlie!
Emily
I would love all of it!! What a great basket! You rock!
Kristen C
I just discovered you and can’t wait to get my crunchy on! Aside from wanting all of it, (and of course the gift card would help me start out quite nicely) I am totally interested in the laundry detergent. Thanks!
Susan Hallwachs
I would like the organic deodorant. I have been searching for the right one for me.
Becky
How did that go? Oh yes. “ALL OF IT!” Thanks!
Becky
I’m most excited to win the MRH Gift Certificate! I’ve been poking around your blog for a few weeks now and would love to get to buy some supplies to make some of my own body-friendly, eco-conscious, healthy stuff!!!
Peg
I would love to win,spread the joy with my friends too!!! so many great companies items in giveaway.Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate is such a great added bonus.they have such a great variety at great prices.
Love your blog!!! have tried your recommendation for turmeric(using vitacost $10. coupon you shared) Thank you : )
Mel
Well, it all looks amazing. I’ve been wanting to try soap nuts for awhile so maybe that’s what I am most excited about…but really, I think it all looks rad.
Keirsten
All of it but especially the mountain rose gift certificate (so many possibilities!) & the econuts…love those….and that coconut milk shampoo bar 🙂
Alicelost
I would love to try the “Meadow’s Own” Vanilla/Orange Deodorant. I love the input from your site and visitor comments. I too agree about Mountain Rose and look forward to a generous gift cert. from them. Thanks for the info. it’s always appreciated.
Fiber of All Sorts {h2ogirl76}
I would adore the whole thing but I would love to try the Shampoo Bar most.
SteRhymeswithTree
OMG. I don’t even know what to say. I want the gift certificate! And the laundry detergent! And to have an excuse to slack on making my toothpaste for a while! And a stock pile of gifts for people who are less sensitive to essential oils than I am or still wash their hair with (gasp!) shampoo!
Also, if I’m that excited about laundry detergent I should really just by the soap nuts…
Barbara
Oh yes! I want all of it.
KatieMAC
Oh yes, ALL OF IT sounds good. I never post on here (and maybe I’ll start now) but your blog has been my #1 resource for quite some time now on my path to making life simpler. THANK YOU a million times for your hints, recipes, and fantastic writing skills.
Andrea Ginsberg
I would love everything, but the Bergamot Linen Spray sound delicious.
sunnyb
Mountain Rose Herbs so I could make more Crunchy recipes. Also, Cocoa and Shea’s products look delish and lux.
Bridget
If i had to pick a favorite I would say the Chagrin Valley shampoo bar, because the baking soda and water is not 100% working for my hair but I have been too busy/uninspired to find another way without returning to “icky” shampoo. But really, how does one choose only 1 awesome thing they’ll be thrilled about in this giveaway 😉
Parisa
I have always wanted to try the Eco Nuts…but I have to say, the thing I am most excited to try when I receive the ‘basket’ of lurve is the Pot of Joie…man that shizzle looks DELICIOUS! (I promise not to actually eat it!) Thanks for running this most Crunchy give-away, very generous of you 🙂 Parisa
Colleen
CB — I am so excited! Thank you for doing this post. I am currently switching my household over to as my natural products as possible and this would certainly give me a big boost! Most excited to try Eco Nuts laundry detergent and Chagrin Valley deodorant.
Love your site and thanks for the helpful hints as I take on this more natural lifestyle.
karibeth
Interested in so many of the natural products. But that orange and chocolate lip balm from Cocoa and Shea sounds yummy!
Katrina
Things that don’t feel like burning! Most excited about the shampoo
bar: I’ve been considering trying one since castille soap/ACV rinse
makes my hair funny, and I can’t find liquid shampoo that doesn’t do bad
things to my skin. Very excited about everything else, too – nary a
questionable ingredient in sight!
Shea
ooooh everything looks amazing!!! Very curious about the solid shampoo.
Sarah
Oh my, I’m drooling over every item in that basket-less basket! especially the Pot de Joie and MRH giftcard!
Thumbelina
The natural laundry products. I have been using soap nuts (the real ones) with decent success so far, and I’d be curious to if their laundry products work better. How do you get oil stains out of cloth anyway?
Aldrea
I absolutely would love the gift card to Mountain Rose most of all. I would use all the amazing products there as inspiration, and finally make the switch to all-natural handmade toiletries and cosmetics. I’ve made my own toothpaste, deodorant and body wash (all from recipes you’ve posted!) but I would definitely use that gift card to buy permanent containers and as many staple ingredients as I could to keep myself crunchy for years!
Jennifer Jones
All of it!!
Sarah
Not to be unoriginal but every item looks amazing. I can only imagine how incredible it all smells!
molly
I want it all but especially the vanilla orange deodorant and the silk and roses soap
Holly
Soap nuts intrigue me so I’m probably most interested in them but everything sounds fabulous.
Terrie
I definitely want all of it! I never get to buy, I always have to make everything I use, so I would ceelime I was being pampered if I won ANY of these wonderful products!
Indra
Totally curious about the soap nuts – especially since I just started making my own laundry detergent. And anything Cocoa and Shea sounds divine!!
Mary Mann
Of course I want ALL of it, but the deodorant is calling my name–or maybe I’m just smelling it! Deodorant is the is one of the only things I have yet to make myself. I would love to be give that product a try!
Mary
3 little words… ALL OF IT
Hailey Fairfield
Oh my! That is a dreamy basket. The shampoo bar and laundry items are especially intriguing! Thank you Miss Crunchy!
Aletha
I would be happy with just the Mountain Rose gift certificate so the rest would be an awesome bonus! I am crossing my fingers right now!
Valerie
I want all of it, but I’m mostly interested in the deodorants. DD says the stuff I make at home doesn’t last long enough and I desperately don’t want her to return to the poison sticks. I want her to have a natural product that works for her.
Rachel
I stand on my feet all day at work and I would LOVE the Tea Tree Foot Scrub and Foot Soak. LOVE THEM!!
Bri
I would like to win…umm…ALL OF IT! I’m new to this crunchy game and although I’m loving it so far, I’m having a hard time with the dry-like-the-sahara-skin that the soaps I’ve tried have lovingly bestowed upon me. I’m hoping something in this basket will help me out&I can continue on in my hippie love journey!
Jessica
Soooo much to be excited about – can.not.name.just.one! You – you are amazing – wish I could wind you in a basket 😉 or as a next door neighbor or something!! Keep on keepin’ on crunchmeister!
Lugene
It ALL sounds so amazing…but I would have to say the MRH GC is what I could really use. I love their EO’s and it could really go far! I love to support you and the companies that you recommend! I haven’t been disappointed by a single one of them! Keep up the wonderful things you do!
Angie S (weirdlywired)
Please? Pretty please choose me? I love you and your blog, and all that you do!
donna Mary
Oh my, This looks just lovely, I have just recently started to do “natural” like making my own. So all of these are just begging to have my name on them. I love your site. Thanks.
Elizabeth A.
Thank you for posting about some great small companies making high quality, all natural and affordable products. This is really perfect timing for me as I have been no poo for about 8 months – but recently having a few issues with it. I need some kind of hair washing that’s really gonna get my hair clean, but keep the damaged part soft and manageable. Anyways, I checked out Chagrin Valley’s website and just orders 8 sample bars. 4 shampoo, and 4 body/face, for managing the eczema and rashes that have appeared over my face and body over the past few years.
Rupunzlemom
I would love ALL of it! I have been trying to make some of these things myself and always like to try what others are making. Also, love supporting small independent businesses.
Maquita
The coco and shea line gives me goose bumps. I can’t wait to try the bitter sweet orange peel lip balm. But I WANT ALL OF IT! Thanks this is awesome!
Diane
All of It…enough said.
Well…besides, “Thank you”.
Jennifer
I would really love to try the lemon lime shaving balm by Chagrin VAlley Soaps, although it all looks amazing!
Lillian
I don’t know if there is still time to enter…but it all looks super duper great
Kathy W
I just had a facelift and these products would certainly help the healing process.
Mary Beth
I have been buying more and more natural products so what a great way to see more of what is out there! They all look wonderful, but I have been really wanting to try Mountain Rose Herbs and the Cocoa and Shea products look amazing. I am not much on posting comments, so not sure if I will even do this right, but thanks for the opportunity regardless! Just love this blog.
Sandy
What I want most from the basket is the gift certificate to MRH, I really,really need to order some items for my soapmaking endeavors.
Jul
ALL OF IT! ALL OF IT! How can you expect us to choose among such great things?
Eco nuts. Rose Mountain Herbs gift certificate. Ummmm. Yummy. Too Scrumptious for words!
Amanda
It all sounds so great, but as I am in need of some more essential oils, I have to say the gift certificate.
Sarah
Yah, pretty much all of it! I’m extra excited about the Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate, though.
BA Parsons
It all looks amazing, but my poor parched skin NEEDS that body butter.
De Cannelle
All of it looks good enough to eat, but I’ll have to hold back and breathe it all in!
Your description of the Pot de Joie has me melting already. I’ve lived with eczema most of my life and I sadly found out that what smells the most amAzing is usually the most chemical filled, leaving the brain searching for a smell it never finds, and creating stress. All of these products, but especially the Coco & Shea lovelies, seem pretty any phyo style, in the aim that you should only put it on your skin if you can eat it! I love, love, love that there are people out there who make products that are as great for the body as they smell.
Whether its an Eco Nut laundry help to make the cloth that touches the skin feel silken and clean, a Mountain Rose Herb Lavender Tea mélange or other chosen, made and tasted by Yours Truly gift of choice, Chagrin Valley soap that gives life instead of drying it away, Meadow’s Own or Marmalade Hills products, where you actually know and can read whats in your product (from your teeth to your toes!), I am ready to be struck down by the marvelousness of these éco-vert beauties. I hope to win, but we all win by having these products made available to us by people who still believe in quality and help remind us of how to get the glow by keeping it simple, natural, and delightfully delicious! Peace out from [email protected] <3!!
Cheri
I would love to try the Eco Nuts. New way to do laundry is always good.
laura
I am most interested in trying the body buters..I think we should call you sweet betty
Sara
I have always wanted to try shampoo bars, this would be a perfect chance to try! Thanks for the wonderful contest!
Michelle
OOHHHH!!! This ALL looks fabulous! However, I’d LOVE to get the MRH Gift Certificate… I wanna make some lip balm for my niece for Christmas that doesn’t make her lips bubble up – ew! Thanks for such a great giveaway!
Karan
You said we could prefer all of it, so I’d prefer all of it!
Paula
The Eco Nuts Lavender Bar Soap! Need I say more? Just heavenly!
Wendy
I’d love to try the Chagrin Valley shampoo bar, and I’m a huge fan of soap nuts for my laundry.
Patti
I definitely want to try ALL of it but especially the soap nuts & deodorant. Have been looking for sources of both.
Jessica E
While OMG I want ALL OF IT – I think I would be most excited about the gift certificate to Mountain Rose Herbs – seriously. There are soooo many things that I want to try but just haven’t had the extra money lately to spend on experiements…this would be PERFECT!
Jennifer
Orange Chocolate Lip Balm!
Cannelle
All of it looks good enough to eat, but I’ll have to hold back and breathe it all in!

Jean von B
I would love to win all of it!
Kristen
I’d love to try the coconut butter shampoo. I’m obsessed with coconut butter EVERYTHING. I cook with it, put it on my lips, in my tea and coffee, and even feed my cat some, too! I’m sure using it everyday would really make a huge difference compared to the crap I use now. 🙂
Erin aka Conscious Shopper
This is the best giveaway ever! I would love to try the Chagrin Valley shampoo bar, but of course the Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate is the icing on the cake.

Everything sounds wonderful, but I’ve been waiting to place an order at MRH until I had the extra $ for all the goodies I want, so that would be amazing!
5B's

Rowan
All of it! Woooooooot!
Raising Isabella
Definitely all of it! I’m a frazzled mom of two under two with one on the way. It’s been a poopy kind of week, and I’d love some pampering to make me feel special. I’ve always wanted to try the soap nuts, and the shaving balm sounds cool, too!
sunny_dawn13
I’d love to try the Chagrin Valley Shampoo bar! I’ve got a long trip coming up and don’t want to worry about bottles spilling in my luggage. And the soap nuts. And the Grapefruit body scrub. And the Body Nectar… wow. Ok. All of it. I’d love to win ALL OF IT!
Meshell
SHAMPOOOOOO BAAAAARRRRRRRR!!!! I am yelling this as I type it. I might lose my job… but at least they know what I am dying over. 😀
MichKCampbell [at] gmail [dot] com
Candy Foster
My favorite thing is the gift certificate to Mountain Rose . . . I was multi-tasking and browsing for essential oils as I was blog reading 🙂
Cheryl
I would absolutely love to have all of it!! I am having excited crunchiness overload over here!! I think I would be most excited about the tooth paste though! I love trying new products and I thank you for sharing all of the links to the pages. If you recommend it, it must be good!!
Karen Nevill
This is super exciting!!! I would love to win everything in the basket but I think I’m most curious about the soap nuts and shampoo bar!
JeanneS
It all looks yummy, but I would most like to try the Eco Nuts, because I may perhaps be a little obsessive about laundry….anyway – off in search of chocolate, that description of the bitter orange and chocolate lip balm made me hungry!
karanasaur
Would love it all! Im trying my best ot make a swtich to all natural products, but trying to find ones that work and I love is getting cost prohibitive! ugh!
cindy
o my goodness any and all of it would be so nice.I love hand made soaps but i would be blessed and happy with anything on here.
Marsha
All of it. Every. Single. Thing. Especially the toothpaste. I’m stuck…I have no issues making my own deodorant, but toothpaste…
Rachael W
WOW- this is awesome! I’m excited about all of it, but I’ve been wanting to try the Chagrin Valley products for awhile now, so I’m definitely most excited about them!
Karen F.
How could one pick, they ALL look excellent!
Lisa
ALL OF IT!! that being said, i find that i keep saying, over and over, BITTERSWEETORANGEPEELSDIPPEDINCHOCOLATE. so, i might be leaning in that direction…..
Amy :o)
What a WONDERFUL giveaway! Thanks for the opportunity to win something so awesome! I REALLY want to try some of the Chagrin Valley’s products (in looking at their website… it all looks so good!) The Lemon Lime Shaving Balm has me particularly intrigued.

I have been super curious about soap nuts ever since I read your article on them. I am also super poor so this giveaway would let me finally give them a shot. 🙂
DesignerGirl
Wow, there are lots of comments here! 🙂 I would love, love, LOVE to get this basket. I’m already a great fan and customer of Chagrin Valley AND Mountain Rose Herbs. I’ve hooked several of my friends on both companies. I’ve even hooked a friend or two onto EcoNuts–and I’m allergic to them! So if I win, really two people will win because I’d give those away. 😉 I’m really excited about trying the Meadow’s Own products…the toothpaste has me VERY curious!

This is an amazing opportunity, Crunchy Betty, and thank you!!!
Jenni
The grapefruit scrub! I have been making and using my own body wash, and to have a scrub would be a super treat. And the toothpaste, because we are running low. 🙂
Shellee

Gail

Ashley
ALL OF IT 🙂 but especially the chagrin valley soap items because that

life of all unnecessary chemicals and i’m trying to replace all of my
personal care items with natural options. this basket would basically
take care of that for me which would be incredible 🙂 thank you for
doing this give away! fingers crossed 🙂
christina
I’d love to win/try all or any of them…Auto Immune diseases run in my family so we are always being told that we need to use more natural products and that we need to destress, with these products the whole household would be covered on all fronts.

Cindy
I would like to try the soap nuts. They sound interesting and I like the idea that they don’t have an artificial fragrance. Just clean!
Heather
I want it all! Especially excited about the Eco Nuts stuff.

How do you pick which to desire the most….If I had too…um… Cocoa and Shea. It just looks dreamy and decadent! Thanks so much for the chance and I am def. going to be doing some shopping off of this lovely basket offering. (After I use up the products from my Win:-)
Shanna
Ahhhh, the gift certificate is what’s really got me. But the Cocoa and Shea Pot De Joie…I could go for dreamy creamy skin.
disqus_gabzt4QZFb
I’m in heaven right now thinking about the Big Natural Basket Giveaway!! I have been trying to go all natural and just thinking about all the stuff in this basket is a delight. This basket would totally help me with my quest in becoming totally chemical free. It’s a big start the I would welcome gladly. Toothpaste, Shampoo, Deodorant OH MY! What do a girl say! I’m so speecheless. Even if I don’t when I will still be on my quest to become totally natural and thank you Crunchy Betty for allowing us to come into your world of natural living. You have taught us so much and we are living better because of you, keep up the good work!!!!!!!!!!!!
Blair
This is such an amazing giveaway!!! Would be thrilled to pieces to win any one of those amazing items, let alone all of them! Most stoked about the Eco Nuts items 🙂
Carrie R
Pretty hard to choose just one, but I think the Econuts since I’ve been wanting to switch but procrastinating. (The soaps all look AMAZING as well though- Lavender Castille-yum!) Thank you to you and the companies. Crossing fingers!
Alena
I’m so sad that you have to be 18 to win 🙁
I’ll be 18 in less than two weeks but that doesn’t really count, does it?
oh well..
Delaney
I really want the scrub. I am constantly on the lookout for good scrubs.
Tonia
OH WOW>>>>ALL OF IT!!!!!!
jacq
Of course everything would be fabulous! Buttttttt, I really am anxious to get my hands on one of those shampoo bars. I have been scouring sites to find natural shampoos for my no-poo mess. I have slowly started easing my fiance and I out of all the chemical enhanced stuff and onto making my own, all from seeing your blog one day by chance. You are truly a personal hero, thank you so much for inspiring me to do this and make our lives better, as cheesey and cliche as I sound, I do not care. 🙂
Kaylee
The Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate!! Although everything looks just fabulous =]
Cheryl
Everything sounds wonderful, but the Cocoa and Shea products are my favorite. Although I will be trying the Eco-nuts very soon!
CateyJay
I’m not sure I could decide on just one. All of it would be more than fabulous. I love natural recipes for things! Less chemicals the better! My hair is picky when it comes to shampoos and doesn’t like harsh chemicals. I have to get natural chap-stick and my skin is SUPER temperamental with cleansers and such that have too much extras in them. I always try to get the most natural things I can afford and being a new college student means not much! Good luck with your products! I think they’re great! AND Good luck to everyone! Someone will definitely be happy to get this pile of great stuff!
Anika
Love all the FB pages and websites… I had no idea there were so many yummy, natural products available out there! Really looking forward to getting some stuff from Chagrin Valley, all their products sound fabulous.
kamy
All of it! Haven’t tried any of these yet, can’t decide what I want most.
Annalisa
I just think the person who wins this will feel so spoiled. What a line-up of amazing products. I’m most intrigued by the Eco Nuts Linen Spray and most excited about
Marmalade Hills Body Nectar. Thank you Crunchy Betty for putting this together!
Jana
The Eco Nuts have me the most interested,but all of them look wonderful!
Abby
All of it sounds absolutely amazing…I want it allllllll (just like Veruca Salt)! The shaving balm sounds like it would be really cool, as well as the gift card…as a poor college student, I’m doing my best to go more natural with the products that I use, but that isn’t always easy on my wallet.
Even if I don’t win, though, I’ve got some great places to check out products now!
Shannon
I want all of the cocoa and shea products! They sound great! Also, I would love to try the tea tree oil foot soak
stephanie
I was trying to pick one item that I want, but it was too difficult. Honestly, they all make me feel giggly. Awesome giveaway!
Paige
Definitely the gift certificate, I can stock up on oils and herbs.
Lindsey
Definitely the mountain rose herbs gift card! I’d love to stock up on some more essential oils!
Tammy
I’m gradually climbing on the crunchy/natural bandwagon and loving everything I see. However, trying to decide what to buy and try and budget for is slowing the expedition. This basket would be a terrific inspiration and the thought of trying everything along with my three daughters sounds like so much fun!
Christiana Stafford
Mostly, I just want ALL of it, haha. But I am slightly more excited about the laundry stuff, the toothpaste, and the gift certificate to MRH! I am really trying to slowly switch over to more natural things but I tend to get stuck in ruts of laziness and just buying the same things instead of trying new ones, so this would be a great way to get me started again!
Fox
I’m gonna have to go with the ALL OF IT option! *grin*
annalee
Ooooh, definitely the bîttersweet orange peels dipped in chocolate lip balm! I’m a nut for natural lip balms, and that one just sounds YUMMY! 😀
Shelley
All of it! 🙂 I have been reading and enjoying your blog for a while. I’m always learning something new. Thank you!
Beth B
You made every single item in this basket sound AMAZIN’! I already love my Eco Nuts Soap Nuts; would be great to have enough for another 100 loads of wash. But the item that has my heart singing, is the Gift Certificate to Mountain Rose Herbs!
Anjeanette
It all looks so interesting. I’m pretty interested in the natural deodorant and trying that. Thanks for writing this blog. I really enjoy learning from you.
Ally
The laundry soap. Or the Coconut Silk Deodorant. Or EVERYTHING ELSE!
engl
O.M.G. I want it all? Is that being too zealous or selfish? However, ill continue to ramble and rave about them below. The Eco nuts soap bars sound awesome as I’m one of those crazy people that loves doing laundry. That’s right, I sit down with my brother’s and parents laundry at least once a month ( my own is down more frequently.) And I’ve been looking for Shea everywhere, but they always have stuff that I don’t want mixed into it! The body nectar also sounds divine! And natural toothpaste. Yay! So, to summarize, I would like to have it all. Please. 🙂
janiejc
I’d love to try everything, but have recently read reviews on Chagrin Valley products!
Daphne
I would love to try soap nuts! I’m also really needing to place a mountain rose order that I haven’t been able to afford, so that is a really awesome bonus! Thanks for supporting small businesses!
Carole
Wow Wow Wow!!! I’m entering this for my daughter who lives in the US. what an amazing surprise it would be for her ! And I’m betting the Pot de Joie would be on top of her list of things to try.
Emi A
I am giggly about the Cocoa & Shea products. Thanks Crunchy Betty for putting together the Big Natural Basket Giveaway 😀
Celeste
Hi! I would love love that Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate the mostest! I could use some herbs for some work I’m doing to improve my reproductive and endocrine systems. Power to Crunchy Betty!!
Colleen
I would love the whole basket, but if I had to pick one item (except, obviously, the gift certificate) I would actually say the deodorant. I love the recipe for deodorant using coconut oil, but I really need to find something more travel-friendly that doesn’t completely liquify in warm weather.
Gwen
I would enjoy all of the products, but I am most interested in the soap nuts.
Guest
I’d like to try the Chagrin Valley products since I recently read many reviews of their products. I would love to try them all – I’m all about natural & organic products!
Kristin T.
Although a lip balm fanatic, I’m most eager to try the soap nuts laundry items. My most recent obsession is finding the perfect laundry soap. Bazinga! I stumble upon this giveaway!
Beth
I’d love to try the shampoo bar as i’d love to see how well it works as well as the eco nuts for laundry.
Nuch
Wow everything looks SO incredible I would be super excited for ANY of them let alone ALL! Going to check out all the sites and I have loved MRH since finding through you : )
Lynn in Tucson
Oooh…that Meadow’s Own stuff looks amazing!
Anneh
Coconut shampoo! I love all things coconut, to eat, to moisturizer, to clean, to smell! And shampoo bars are great for traveling! Also the deodorant! And the soap nuts! Everything in the basket would be superb! But not the actual basket, I do not covet it because I know it’s not available. It is a very nice basket though.
Carla
Absolutely ALL of it sounds amazing! I recently bought a handful of items from Mountain Rose Herbs, including a pound of the soap nuts (because your blog post on them piqued my curiosity), which I haven’t hada chance totry, yet. This next laundry batch is theone!
Lynn
I would love to try the toothpaste. Although, I would love all of it…
Sigrid
It’s a toss-up between Chagrin Valley Soap & Salve and Meadow’s Own for the products I really want to try! Definitely going to check out these sites though…love finding new natural products!! Thank you soooo much for this and just for being you! I have learned so much from you and I love to share all your tidbits with my friends & family!!
Ruth S
OMG, It all looks amazing and I have had MRH on my wish list for awhile! How fun to find the other sites that are contributing to the gift basket! They all look amazing!
scarlett
I’m excited about everything, but I would love to try the coconut shampoo bar, and the eco-friendly laundry soap! Killer selection!!! I would love to win because I am out of a job and a full time student and being eco-friendly is hard when you are on a budget and this would make me feel like I wasn’t being a terrible consumer of corporate products.
Char
I think every last thing in the ‘basket’ sounds amazing!!!
Kelly
I haven’t made the plunge on buying any natural deodorants and haven’t had much success making them myself so I’m most excited about the deodorant! Which sounds a bit lame… Oh well
squeekersmcgee
Oh wow… All of it sounds amazing but I’m really dying to try both deodorants! I made one (your recipe with coconut oil and beeswax) and while I think I smell fine at the end of the day my husband says I smell 🙁 It’d be awesome to try different things and see how they work with my body!
LaLaRouge
I am so curious about the Eco Nuts products, especialy the soap nuts themselves! And the Cocoa and Shea products sound like the perfect thing for winter…or summer…or fall… Ok, I want it all! Fingers crossed… Thanks Crunchy Betty!!!
Jill
All of it sounds amazing!!
michelle in colorado
Eco Nuts 100-load soap nuts, I have been wanting to try these.

Tara Severns
All of it! 🙂
Susan Vines
ALL OF IT!!!!!!!!!!!! Especially the natural deodorants…I’m running out of my bad kind and looking to switch but I’m a little nervous. I would also go crazy over the Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate! There are so many things I’ve been dying to try but haven’t really had the budget for.
Crystal
I am wanton all of it but the gift certificate is a huge thing to me so I can start my crunchy life style that I have had to put on hold due to money.
Norma
What a great contest..It all sounds amazing…definitely the gift card is the one that brings the most possibilities of joy. 🙂
Patinaware

I want all of it – especially the gift card!! Thanks for the opportunity!
carrie s
I would love to try the coconut shampoo bar
Leah
So many goodies, it’s hard to pick a favorite! Probably the Cocoa and Shea Pot de Joie, I’m a big fan of baby soft skin. I would love to try the soap nuts too! I love getting your blog updates in my inbox, makes me smile every time. Thank you!
RebeccaEllsworth
ECO NUTS! I want those laundry products like a desert wants rain. Like peanut butter wants chocolate (or jelly. Either one). Like a has-been movie star wants to get on Celebrity Rehab. I just moved to New York City, and I want to wash out the grime with some natural goodness. Where is the space that says “email”? I don’t see one – PANIC! My email is [email protected]
lisalevi
WOW! how awesome. I have only recently found you in the last few months and have just received an order from mountain rose herbs to make some of the lotion bars your feature. I think i would love to try the soaps! in that gorgeous basket! thanks for all you do!!
RuthAnn
ooo – the lavender castile soap sounds dreamy! and that that gift certificate. …oh, who am I kidding, I want it all!
Gina
All of it!! Ha. I really want to try the natural deodorant though!
Rachel
I love Eco Nuts. I have never tried the liquid stuff though. The toothpaste sounds interresting too.
Alita
I’m crazy excited to try the toothpaste! Because my version, containing all the same ingredients, still tastes salty. 🙁 And the Mountain Herbs GC is pretty awesome too…
April
All of it! The Eco Nuts products especially! Been so curious about soap nuts since I first read about them.
Samantha
EVERYTHING. They all look fantastic! Sadly, I do not have any natural body products right now, because I don’t have the money. This would be divine! Good luck everyone!
Stargirl
This basket looks like so much fun! ALL OF IT!!!
Sheila Marie
They are all top knotch products. I am interested in Meadow’s Own Toothpaste. Anything that I put in my mouth I want it to be a natural product. Can’t take care of teeth enough!
Long Haired Hippie
EVERYTHING! But mostlt the CV and cocoa and shea items
Pjaih
Everything in the basket sounds wonderful. I would love to have all of it. I have been trying to get into all the more natural beauty and health items, and this basket would give me a chance to try many new items. Do hope I win!
Cheryl L.
Wow! This is a fabulous basket – I love it all. But, I’m interested in the products from Meadow’s Own. I’m looking for a natural deodorant that works with my body chemistry, and the grapefruit body scrub appeals to me also. And, I love the idea of the gift certificate too!
Helena
I have been wanting to buy from Mountain Rose Herbs for a long time but have never had the chance. I also love the sound of all the lotions creams and body oils. Being 5 months pregnant makes any of those things sound wonderful along with the foot soaks.
Melissa
I want ALL OF THIS!! Everything in this basket looks so tantalizing. The more natural the better. I’m really excited to try to the eco nuts. Thanks for the opportunity of winning all these lovely treats. I hope I’m the lucky one 🙂
Kristi Knight
Oh Snap!! You have a lot of followers!! I would love it all! I think the nuts would be the best though. I have 8 children and I do laundry all day!
Marcy
Would love to try the coconut milk shampoo bar!
Cc
Is it wrong to say I’m in love with any and everything natural? I am new to the site and have learned that I can have a sophisticated beauty regimen with all the products I have in my house. I love it. But after looking at this amazing basket I think I may have several new natural items to fall in love with it. Natural deordants, sprays, and powder toothpaste sign me up darling’!!!!!!
melanie sutton
This is awesome! There are multiple products I would be thrilled to have!
Zaynab

Muphin
I want the coconut milk shampoo bar!!!! I love coconut oil and am amazed every day at all the benefits of it. I already use it as lotion, as a remedy for my son’s dandruff, as a toothpaste, and I’ve started oil pulling about once a week with it. I’m still a bit nervous about that one though because of my dental work.
This “basket” looks amazing! I WANT IT!!!!!
LorrieG
All of it sounds amazing but that Gift Certificate to Mountain Rose Herbs would be amazing! Thanks for an amazing opportunity to win what looks like some amazing products.

Jessica Talstein
I want to try it all! The deodorants sound awesome, the toothpaste sounds awesome, the soaps sound awesome. It all sounds awesome! BTW When I found your blog, sometime this year, I was so excited that you were also in Colorado. I don’t know why I get all giddy finding fellow natural Coloradans! Maybe because I haven’t come across very many…
Mara
Chagrin Valley Coconut Milk Shampoo Bar because I imagine it smells incredible plus I’m from Cleveland, OH and know the Chagrin Valley well so love supporting a hometown business.
LauraKate
Everything sounds so delicious–it’s hard to choose! Soap nuts would be new and interesting.

Kam
All, all, all of it! Sounds amazing!!
Julie
How awesome is this giveaway! All these products look fantastic, but I’m really jazzed about the soap nuts. I’ve read so much about them, but been scared to try them. Winning this basket would ensure I have no excuse not to use them.
lori
I would love all of these natural products! Pick me!!! Love love love natural stuff!
JonanaCoe
Holy snap. You already have a jillion comments, so I doubt I’ll win, but the Meadows Own stuff is very compelling to me. And OF COURSE the mountain rose herb GC!
But the whole thing is amazing and whoever winds up winning is the luckiest person ever!
Jesski
I am most excited to try the Eco Nuts Bergamot Linen Spray…I’m sitting on my couch typing this and it definitely smells like my dog! Ha!

Ruth Brown
Thank you so much for this wonderful chance — it’s mind boggling — and yes, I want it all, but especially the cocoa and orange peels dipped in Chocolate Lip Balm, and the EcoNuts and Meadow’s Own Grapefruit Body Scrub –YUMMY and YUMMY.
AmyZ
I want the Bittersweet Orange Peels Dipped in Chocolate Lip Balm!!! Maybe that’ll satisfy my hourly chocolate cravings….?

The toothpaste!
Kerri
Oh so nuts for Cocoa and Shea! And, of course, for you, Crunchy Betty. Honestly, I want it all!

I love anything tea tree and my job as a chemistry tutor has me on my feet for long periods, so I’m most excited about the Tea Tree Foot Soak!
Erika
That’s an amazing basket! And yes…I would have to say that I want all of it!
I’m really interested in the toothpastes and the deodorants… I’ve been working with some homemade recipes and while the results have worked, they’re not ideal… so I’d love a chance to try another formulation.
JJ
I’m not sure what it implies about my personal hygiene, but I’m most excited about the deodorant and toothpaste. Thanks!
Kim
Wow, the orange peels dipped in chocolate lip balm sounds amazing!
Ingrid
I have become a HUGE fan of yours absolutely love everything lavender and coconut oil. I am interested in the deoderant and such but would love to try the cocoa and shea products so I guess I want everthing!!!!
Amanda
I would be so excited about all of it, but especially the Mountain Rose Herbs gift certificate. You are the BEST Crunchy Betty!!
Rebekah
Oh my! So many choices, I think I’d like it ALL! The bergamot spray and laundry detergent are pretty exciting
Sarah
Oh. My. Goodness!
I broke out in a random rash so I’d want the lotions… and the Mountain Rose Herbs card.
nyna
Is it okay if I say that i think everything in the basket sounds rad 😀 I guess if I had to narrow it down I’d have to go with the natural sweet orange/vanilla deodrant. Even if I dont win I definitely want to diy some!
Jan
Oh, I guess, ALL OF IT !!! But especially the Mountain Rose Herb certificate, and of course I LOVE Eco Nuts!
Victoria
Um, definitely, ALL OF IT, but I neeeeed the Pot de Joie! Very exciting! Thanks for the opportunity!

right in time for my birthday… 😀 [email protected]
Marissa
Couldn’t pick just one thing, have to say “All Of It!!”

ALL OF IT! Especially the Mountain Rose Herb gift card – they’ve got a great selection of essential oils that I can use to make Crunchy Betty recipes 😀
sweetlady1155
WONDERFUL!!! I would love to try ALL of the times!!!
Abby
I would most definitely LOVE all of it. I can’t choose which of the products I want most. This is so exciting! I hope with all my heart I win this!
Michelle
Wow, it all sounds amazing!! I have to say that the $65 GC to Mountain Rose is what gets me the most excited. I’ve been wanting to place an order but it hasn’t been in the budget lately.
mora
Hmm, I’m torn between the toothpaste (because it’s the only type of product that I haven’t tried a natural alternative for yet) or deodorant (also Meadow’s Own and because I haven’t found a natural one, including homemade coconut oil-based ones, that works for me consistently and without irritation) or the gift certificate (to try out more Crunchy Betty recipes!). I’d be thrilled to have any of them, though.
Theresa Zordan
Oh my god, I’d be MOST excited about winning the deodorant(s). Or maybe the laundry soap. Or the gift certificate. Yes, definitely the gift certificate. Or maybe the shaving balm. Or the body nectar. Okay, okay, I’d be super excited to win just a tenth of the things in the basket, but if I could win them all?!?! I’d probably pee my pants. Just sayin’.
Brooke
Anything with lavender I’m a sucker for, so I’m looking forward to trying the Cocoa and Shea Lavender Castile Soap. Yay!
Casey L
Econuts! I love these to do my laundry with! And well, the GC for Mountain Rose Herbs hits if very closely. I love them!
Nicole
I would love it all but I really want to try the toothpaste. I have been looking for a good all natural toothpaste! I am going to try it.
Jasminelani
Heck, winning even one of these items would be cool, but a whole and entire boxful!? Thanks for offering this giveaway – FUN!
Rhoni
It is hard to decide, though I think all the products are great as it is so hard to find the truly natural ingredient products here in Canada. How do you manage to get the products for such an awesome give away?
Gloria
All of it! [email protected]
Judy
I want to try it all!!!
LizzieJo
I am greedy – I want it all! I love supporting small business and will definitely be doing some shopping. Do you know how many shopping days are left until Christmas? Not as many as you think!
TJB
I would love all of it – I love trying new products!
Anne
The product I want the most is the Cocoa and Shea Bittersweet Orange Peels Dipped in Chocolate Lip Balm, but really, I want it all!
Larissa
I’d definitely like the body nectar, or the $65 to MRH! Awesome!!
Autumnsong9
The whole basket looks amazing, but the cocoa and shea pot de joie looks like heaven in a canister.
Evelyn
It all looks great!
Heather Sheperis
I’d be most excited to try the Pot De Joie from Cocoa and Shea. I <3 shea butter, but have never tried it whipped. You made it sound awesome.
yvonne
I get “giggly” about clean laundry and since I’ve used soap nuts before, eco-nuts would be my favorite item, but willing to try them all! I also buy from Mountain Rose Herbs so this would be a perfect gift to myself.
Sassy Gma
All of it sounds divine, I really can’t pick just one above the others. The gift certificate would be great. I love essential oils. I really dig your blog! Keep up the great work!
Alia
I have to admit, I’m a sucker for MRH essential oils and french clay! The gift certificate! Although I’d eagerly make use of everything…
Eileen @ Ham Pie Sandwiches
This has to be the biggest giveaway I’ve ever seen! I for one am most excited about the Mountain Rose Herbs certificate. Thanks for the opportunity!
Linda Forrester
I would love all of these for sure! I visited the websites and liked and shared on FB….and love these people even if I never win a thing! They make life just better!
Jan
I’m crazy excited about the whole basket (minus the basket, lol). But I’m super stoked about the MRH gift certificate. I always have a wish list cart going.
Jenny I
All of it! Especially Chagrin valley, Eco nuts and the MRH GC. It would definitely make my day!
Leah
The Eco Nuts, toothpaste, body scrub, and the gift certificate…basically all of it!
Tina Huba
I so want to win the meadow’s own toothpaste it sounds amazing!!!!!!!
MissElizaSea
Honestly? The deodorants! I have yet to find a natural one I like in the stores, and am reluctant to drop money if I won’t like it.
Jenn I. Fer
I would love the Cocoa and Shea Pot De Joie! It looks divine…as do all the other products! Thank you for doing this giveaway!
Crystal
Would most like to try that Meadow’s Own deodorant – I’ve been looking for a natural deodorant for months and so far, still stinky most of the time!
ldharvey
I want it all! Thanks for the giveaway. I loved all the Facebook pages – I love natural products!

lenkalmt
Ooooh! All of the products sound lovely. Thanks for letting us know about these small businesses–with a great endorsement from you I’m sure many people will be checking out their sites. The soap nuts I’ve been wanting to try and the orange vanilla deodorant sounds great, and the GC would come in very handy making your wonderful recipes…I would be thrilled with all of it…fingers crossed 🙂
Jessie
All of it, but most of all the Cocoa and Shea, as well as the Econuts for the laundry :). Good luck, all!
Stina168
What an amazing giveaway! I’m especially excited about the Cocoa and Shea products–that Lavender Castile soap sounds divine! But I’m also interested in trying the deodorants b/c I’ve made several versions of my own and bought natural ones, but none of them work for me. I’m bound and determined to find a natural deodorant that works, so the search continues!! Excited to check out all these great sites 🙂
DM
All of these products look fantastic and I will definitely check out
each and every business that you’ve mentioned. I am most “giggly” about
the Marmalade Hills Tree Tea Foot Soak and Foot Balm, because my son’s
feet are desperate need of attention. We’ve tried some things without
too much success. Thanks for the chance to enter and for a truly
enjoyable blog.
Lisa
The shampoo bar!!!! And the whipped shea butter!! Awesomeness. What great companies and products!
j
All of it! But seriously, chocolate dipped orange peel lip balm? From the sound of it, I most likely would be eating my lips! What would it take for me to be the lucky one?!?!?!?! Thanks for offering such a great giveaway!
Regena Handley
I’m very new to the all natural world…I took the plunge by doing the “BC” in June! I just recently found your site and I luv ur natural hot oil treatments so wining the Mountain Rose Herbs gift card would be a fantabulous way to start my natural journey!
Suzy Z
All of it!!!
Tonya
I want it all—-definitely all of it…. 🙂
Jennifer
All of it of course! However, I’m really excited about the Chagrin Valley Soaps and the Eco-Nuts!
kimmi
Eco nuts! I’ve been do curious about them!
Stacy Cobb
