ECO-CONSCIOUS

ECO-CONSCIOUS 
We care greatly for the state of our environment, our footprint and how we can operate sustainably. Here are some of the ways that we intentionally do our part in every day practices: 

- sustainable products - we sell vintage and antique decoratives! decorate in a green way with items that already exist vs. mass production
- carbon neutral shipping
- operating energy efficient equipment; lights
- waste reduction; minimize paper usage
- up-cycling storage vessels of glass + wood
- natural; non-toxic cleaning materials
- delivery route optimization + consolidating (best route with bundled deliveries for less separate trips to lower emissions) 
packaging materials made from natural materials, recycled, and biodegradable - current specific considerations: compostable mailers, biodegradable honeycomb packing paper, eco-friendly paper packing tape, and recyclable cushion wrap

HERITAGE PRESERVATION
Preserving the past through historic buildings + structures is so necessary to give future generations the opportunity to connect, understand and appreciate their cultural heritage. It also supports the identity of a community, is environmental + economical and they are irreplaceable.
