Buying Eco-Friendly wines just got easier with green conscious Whole Foods Market carrying new Green Path wines. "The Green Path wines are made with [certified organic grapes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/misto-mare) using a growing process with minimal environmental impact and "bottled" in [Tetra Pak](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tetra-brik-aseptic-200-slim-leaf-carton) Tetra Prisma packaging," Luxist reveals. "The wines being sold are a 2006 Chardonnay and a 2006 Shiraz from Australia, sourced from [Organic One Wines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plantbased-fertilizer). The wines sell for $12 each."

**Implications** - Businesses that offer green alternatives to commonly used items will fare well amongst today's eco-conscious consumers. Consumers are constantly looking for products to complement their green lifestyles and it is imperative that businesses rise to the challenge.
