Green Consumer Day!!!

As the world celebrates the Green consumer day on 28th September, the Tatsat team takes this opportunity to thank you for appreciating and using our eco-friendly and recycled products.
To show our commitment towards the cause, we are launching recycled bags made of Jute and fabric and natural fibre bags made of banana fibre, screw pine and cane this September. Now you can even find a wide array of Bonsais and vermi-compost or organic manure in addition to the already existing and very popular range of beautifully potted indoor plants from Green Somethings, at Tatsat.
To spice up things this Green Consumer day, the Tatsat team announces a Limerick (short poem, some fun links about limericks are provided below!) competition for its ‘Green consumer’. Write a Limerick to prove that you are a green consumer and the best limerick gets a FREE potted plant, worth Rs. 350 from “Green Somethings” (www.GreenSomethings.com).
You can email your limerick at tatsat297@gmail.com on or before 28th September or write it on the spot when you come for shopping at Tatsat on or before 28th September. The best Limerick writer will be notified by phone by the September 30th, so don't forget to leave your contact number.
Once again, thank you for being an aware Green customer!
