Hop on this now or totally miss out – Boxes often sell out in just hours! The only hard part of this equation will be for you to decide which Boxes you want most. (We won’t tell if you buy more than one.)

Here’s what we have to offer this time around:

Planning adventures for 2012? Look no further than this Travel Box to get you equipped for all of your free-roaming endeavors. It’s full of everything needed to inspire, gear up or store away while you travel the world looking for adventure.

Whether you’re a new mom, are expecting, or have friends and family with little ones, you’ll love the Mom + Baby Box. There are enough full-sized products and projects here to try out as well as share! And did we mention all the items in the Mom + Baby Box are non-toxic and eco-friendly? We love it!

Since we’re in the middle of winter, we think the best way to embrace the season is to pack an Entertainment Box full of everything you’ll need for a night in. Warm up with a mug of organic hot chocolate and throw on a DVD; this box is all about keeping you entertained and cozy through the winter months. Can we say eco-hibernation?

The Health + Beauty Box is chock full of organic, luxe body care, jewelry and healthy goodies – a perfect way to start off 2012 and turn over a green leaf. Featuring full-size gorgeous green goods, this was our most popular Box last time around, so hop on this now or miss out!

The Conscious Food Box will have you wanting to eat better. It’s one month into 2012; how are those healthy resolutions going? Hopefully well, but if you need an extra boost of support in eating better this year, look no further than our Conscious Food Box. It’s packed with treats and products that are good for you and the planet. From gluten-free cake mix and a cookbook to reusable produce bags and coffee mugs, we hope this Conscious Eating themed box inspires you to live by our Food section motto, “good food, from good places with good people.” You’ll even receive an EcoSalon-exclusive, USA-crafted ceramic espresso cup (doubles as a shot glass).

Just because we’re stuck in the middle of winter doesn’t mean we can’t look good and feel good. Slip on your new eco-friendly designer shades, sling that rocker chic, buttery recycled leather tote from VivaTerra over your shoulder, and head on out or crack open a book to do some DIY from our Fashion Box…or indulge with a gift certificate or two!

We promise you’ll enjoy whichever one (or two, or three) you choose. Enjoy!

Fat Toad Farm Caramel Sauce

If ever there were a sauce you’d want to put on everything, this is it. Made from organic goat’s milk, Fat Toad Farm’s caramel sauce is creamy, rich and flat-out amazing. A family farm, Fat Toad’s 47 milking does are pasture-raised, their milk used for making cheese and caramel, or cajeta. Because this form of caramel is primarily dairy based, it’s creamier and less sweet than standard caramel sauces. Be careful not to down the entire jar on one apple.
