WHY GO GREEN?

OUR STORY

From 2016 to 2018, our family left the comfort of home for a new adventure—a journey that would change our lives. We bought a 45-ft sailboat and sailed from Canada to the Caribbean, spending two months volunteering in Honduras. We couldn’t have known how deeply this experience would impact us. Our values shifted, our perception of the world transformed, and our needs became simpler. We began to see the world through a more natural, sustainable lens.

We witnessed the beauty of our planet—its stunning landscapes and rich cultures. We were welcomed by countries with limited resources but abundant traditions and values. Yet we were saddened by the pollution we encountered, sailing through seas filled with plastic and visiting remote areas where fields and waterways were marred by waste. Our precious planet has no Plan B.

It was during this journey that we felt a powerful call to make a difference. We developed a profound appreciation for the interconnectedness of all life on Earth. Now, more than ever, we want to help you reduce your footprint and play a part in restoring our planet from the impacts of human activity.
