BURLINGTON, VT - October 29, 2007 - The November issue of InStyle magazine features exciting highlights of Sheryl Crow's July eco-baby shower for her son Wyatt, but for expanded, exclusive coverage of the celebration and details on how to throw a green gala of their own, curious families and fans are encouraged to visit www.weegeneration.com. Dozens of never-before seen, behind-the-scenes photos of the occasion and an interview with party planner Traci Phillips are now available for viewing online and provide details surrounding the star-studded, eco-conscious affair.

Phillips, whose client history includes recording artists Sara Evans and Carrie Underwood, speaks about the details of planning Ms. Crow's eco-shower in an exclusive video interview available on http://www.weegeneration.com/eco-tips. Planning a party for one of the most outspoken environmentally-conscious celebrities, Phillips gave great attention to every environmental aspect of the fête while also keeping the affair playful and "down-home." A list of Eco-Baby Shower Tips Philips used to guide her expert planning is also available at www.weegeneration.com.

"There is nothing more important to a parent than keeping their baby healthy and happy," said Christopher Gavigan, executive director of Healthy Child Healthy World, a founding partner of Wee Generation. "We cannot think of a better way to welcome and celebrate the life of a new child than with an eco-friendly baby shower. With the easy-to-follow tips and guidance provided by Wee Generation, expectant parents can feel supported and empowered to build a healthier future for all children."

Along with the opportunity to view exclusive celebrity content and learn how to produce their own green events, consumers have until Nov. 30, 2007, to enter the Wee Generation sweepstakes, featuring a grand prize Green Nursery Makeover and a chance to "pay it forward" by donating a second makeover to a favorite local children’s organization.

Wee Generation, a co-host of Ms. Crow's shower, was formed by Seventh Generation, Healthy Child Healthy World, and babystyle to help parents raise healthy and happy babies. In addition to educating parents, the Wee Generation team is also developing the world's first Cradle to Cradle certified baby bag. When the bag goes on sale to the general public in February 2008 all profits will benefit Healthy Child Healthy World.
