Radio Flyer Earth Wagons

Its a classic, with a very green twist. The Earth Wagon is a genuine Radio Flyer,but the entire body of the wagon is made from 100% recycled post-consumer HDPE (AKA plastic milk jugs). More than 230 milk jugs go into making the body of each wagon.

 
 

This is a green version of the Town & Country Radio Flyer - the one with the red sides and wooden side slats. Its a cool way to lug groceries and kids around without taking a car, and a great way to demonstrate that going green doesn't mean giving up the classics. Of course, you do have to part with a fair bit of green to get one - the Earth Wagon is $140.00.

If I didn't already have my 30 year old metal wagon, I'd run out and buy this one. What a great idea! At least I'm doing reduce, reuse, recycle thing but it still makes me want to buy new.
