Relocating to a new home is often accompanied by excitement and the promise of new beginnings. However, the process can also be fraught with a significant environmental footprint. From discarded packing materials to the carbon emissions of moving trucks, the act of moving can contribute substantially to waste and pollution. Embracing a mindful and sustainable approach to moving not only alleviates stress but also minimizes environmental impact.

But what about the digital world? Something as seemingly weightless as an email carries an unseen environmental cost, and with over 300 billion emails sent daily, that impact adds up quickly.

Living a sustainable life doesn’t mean you have to give up all modern conveniences, technology, and other things you love. Perhaps we should all be planting and nurturing more trees and respecting the natural world, but we can strike a balance between our green thumb and our digital footprint.

While our homes aren’t yet naturally hardwired to be environmentally conscious, recent years of innovative technology have given us the opportunity to make swaps in our appliances and common household items that are more aligned with our green values. We’re a fan of a little home renovation just like anyone else…

We can talk all day about the activities usually associated with summer--swimming, cook outs, icy cocktails--by we figured: why not focus on family friendly activities that do good for our environment, too? Things to do that are green, educational, and fun enough to keep the kids distracted from screen time?  

Your pets are part of the family. Just as we would treat any important member of our family, we want to give our animals the very best of everything. Organic treats, luxurious bedding, the most squeak-able of squeaky toys… Nothing is too good for them.
