Eco Friendly baby registry

Any advice on where to register if I want to raise baby as EF as possible?

    for the big stores, both Babies R Us and BuyBuyBaby seem to have a good selection of green/er products. BRU actually has more in some of the bigger areas. we simply can't afford to go as green as we'd like, so, for example, we're getting a DaVinci crib & mattress. of the mass produced lines, they're the best, and BRU carries a good selection online.

    we're also using https://babyli.st/ to register for other things that we can't find in the big stores. you can put anything you find online, at any site, onto it.

    If you want, especially for friends & family, myregistry.com or amazon will let you register at a whole bunch of places, which lets you pick and choose from wherever you want (well, amazon doesn't exactly).  with myregistry, you can even register for things off of etsy or hyenacart!

    I actually found Diaper's.Com to be the most eco-friendly option for me.

    sorry- responding kinnda late to this thread.... but when I was pregnant I registered at https://www.alternativegiftregistry.org

    You can pull from all over the web to different on-line eco friendly stores or just write stuff like, 10 organic cotton onsies and then people find the onsies whereever and just say on the sight that they bought 4.  If you have a local eco-friendly baby shop you can then link to their on-line site as a suggestion (our local one is peapods).

    I was okay with not getting the exact product but just giving suggestions like, "all natural baby shampoo" and then I would show a link to California Baby shampoo as an example.

    I also agree with last poster about diapers.com.  I love diapers.com- I probably order stuff from there at least once/month now that baby is here.

    I registered with Amazon and put about 90% eco-friendly items on there :) I also left comments on some of the things saying "it doesn't have to be this exact one but this is an example blah blah blah"
