Green Home & Garden

An important area where we can make sustainable choices that are not only responsible but also reduce exposure to toxic materials is in the home. We can vote with our wallets to reward companies and local artisans who are championing sustainable methods and local, renewable materials. Our gardens can provide shade to help reduce our energy bills and fruit, vegetables and herbs to feed us. In an increasingly urbanized environment, a home and garden that keeps us connected with nature and does the important job of  providing balance.

Green Food

As we learn the ways of sustainable eating with concepts like Locavore,  Slow Food, 100 Mile Die and Safe Food, we are also discovering that we have many resources here in Johor like local produce at our wet markets, night markets, farmers markets and green markets. We are discovering the importance of knowing the farmers who provide us with food and learning as much as we can about the problems of the agricultural industry and rewarding the retailers who are going the extra mile to provide us with better choices.
