EcoMom Star: Sommer Poquette

12NovEcoMom Star: Sommer Poquette

With this post, we begin a new tradition here at EcoMom – the honoring of amazing individuals who are working to make the world a better place. We believe there are two kinds of people in the world, those who say “Something must be done” and those who ask, “What can I do?” An EcoMom Star is someone who does the latter, and day after day, shows up in the best way she (or he) can, to support more healthy, happy, and sustainable living on this planet we all share.

Our first EcoMom Star is Sommer Poquette, a.k.a. Green and Clean Mom.

Sommer is a mother of two young children, a wife, educator, green entrepreneur, humanitarian, enthusiastic social media fanatic, internet marketer, social media and marketing consultant and blogger.

Writes Sommer, “I started Green & Clean Mom as a way to reach out to other moms like myself. I wanted to learn about ways to be more Eco-savvy and as I researched or tried a product I started blogging about it to share what I found and my opinion on things. One thing has led to another and now I am here, running Green and Clean Mom, LLC. I believe that anyone can be green (there are over 33 shades), sexy (confident and interesting) and sassy (smart and stylish). It is my hope that, Green & Clean Mom can inspire you to try a little harder, be a catalyst for change and to offer you some new tips and news on how to be the green, sexy and sassy mom…I know you are!”

For all you do Sommer, as a woman, mother, and the Chief Operating Officer of your home, thank you and congratulations on being our first ever, EcoMom Star!
