We are announcing today that we are bring-ing the Milestone and Ever Green brands even closer together. Effective as of Decem-ber 5, 2005, our official name will be:
GREEN MILES WEST
The substitution of “West” in our name -replacing “California”- is the result of an agreement we reached with California Gar-dening Association, following a protest over the original use of “California” in our name. We hope this does not create any confusion among our loyal consumers. While this represents a change from our initial name introduction, it does not change the quality of products we offer to our consumers.
