About This Blog

Moms Speak Up is collaborative blog of writers from various backgrounds. We're talking about the environment, dangerous imports, health care, food safety, media and marketing, education, politics and many other hot topics of concern.

About Us

We are women, parents, consumers, voters and much, much more and we're fed up with the "business as usual" attitude of politicians & greedy corporations. It's time for us to speak up and be heard!

New Site: Non-Toxic Kids

There’s a new site up and about called Non-Toxic Kids: Helping Your Kids Stay Safe, Healthy and Smart. It’s run by Katy Farber, a mom, writer, activist, teacher and fellow Vermonter.

She has tips on safe holiday toys, make-it-yourself crafts, commentary on the latest safety issues and a great recommended book list, among other things.

She’s also guest blogging over at MotherVerseBlog: Mothering Out Loud.

So, go on and pay her a visit. Tell her Kris sent you.
