MotherNature.com Returns Bearing Gifts for Mother Nature

#1 Health and Wellness Website Re-launches Featuring Unique Partnership with

The Conservation Fund to Save Land and Water Resources with Every Purchase

NEW YORK, NEW YORK, Dec. 14 -/E-Wire/-- Naturalist.com, Inc., a privately held company, has acquired certain assets of MotherNature.com, Inc. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

MotherNature.com, rated the #1 health and wellness website in 2000 by Gomez Advisors, has been re-launched today featuring over 7,500 carefully selected natural health, nutrition and fitness products.

"We are excited to re-establish MotherNature.com's position as the best source of natural health products and information on the web", said Whitney Anderson, CEO of Naturalist.com. "While we have changed the way MotherNature.com does business, we've been working hard to maintain the outstanding customer service and broad selection for which MotherNature.com was so well known."

For every transaction on the website, Mothernature.com's sponsors will make a donation to The Conservation Fund to help protect 522 square feet of endangered land and water in the shoppers' region of the U.S. "We are proud of our partnership with this leading conservation organization and believe strongly in their mission to protect land and water, educate our leaders and create a better future for America's communities", said Anderson.

The Naturalist Network has grown steadily over the last 2 1/2 years by rolling up web properties in the "healthy living" market, consolidating technology platforms, keeping overhead low and outsourcing key business functions. "We plan to run the MotherNature.com business with a focus on sustainable growth, and with the same strategy that has allowed our other businesses to succeed, even during these past few difficult years for e-commerce," said Anderson.

MotherNature.com's wide selection of products includes vitamins and minerals, herbs, supplements, homeopathic and sexual health remedies, sports, nutrition, diet and weight loss products, aromatherapy, body and bath products, books, food and beverages including teas and organic coffees, and products for your home and pet. "MotherNature.com" brand products are also being offered, as well as an extensive library of natural health information to help shoppers make informed decisions about their purchases.

About Naturalist.com, Inc. Naturalist.com is an online network aggregating the "best of" products, services and information for nature, outdoor recreation, and natural health enthusiasts. The Naturalist Network consists of seven web properties with significant reach into the natural, environmental and eco-friendly marketplace.
