Read MoreLife always has its challenges, as the past year has really demonstrated, and sometimes both the big picture and daily busyness can feel pretty overwhelming. It can often be very helpful to just focus on the things we can control, and commit to taking some simple, day-to-day actions that can have a seemingly small, perhaps, but definitely positive impact on us, our communities, and our planet. The truth is even little gestures of care can end up having a really big positive impact on overall wellness.

But fresh air and green spaces can always be super beneficial for anyone, on so many levels, and kids are certainly no exception to this rule. It can be a real struggle to tear kids aways from devices, but sometimes if you can just get them out the door and provide a few cool ideas and fun snacks, it’s surprising how quickly they can get carried away and forget that they are supposed to be begging for screen time.

Read MoreWe caught up with Megan Wallace of NutMeg Mylks for April’s Meet The Maker interview! As with so many of our amazing local makers, Megan was inspired to create her unique product by her own lifestyle and values. Her journey into crafting super fresh nut mylks started in her own kitchen on BC’s West Coast and though her creations are now shared with the whole region, they’re still made in small, high quality batches. One of the things that has won her mylks so many loyal fans are her delicious (and lovely looking!) flavours like Creamy Brazil Nut, Blue Coconut, and Silky Cacao. Read on to learn more about Megan and her fabulous local nut mylks!

So this month we've rounded up a few general but always great to keep in mind tips on natural skin care, so we can all move into this new season with a sense of rejuvenation.
Read MoreFor March’s Mini Interview we’re chatting with Lalena Scott of JAMPACKED jams! Toast with jam, PB&J… jam is a classic, always around food here, and JAMPACKED folks have done that thing we love to see: they’ve taken a kitchen staple and made it more nutritious, more natural, and really local. Inspired their family and community, they’ve stuffed tons of love into their jars, along with all kinds of superfoods and seeds, and delicious grown-in-BC berries. They’ve created a jam that is so low in sugar it’s actually keto friendly! Even if you aren’t doing keto, in addition to low sugar, you’ll benefit from all the awesome vitamins and nutrients, and you’re going to love the really fabulous taste of these spreads. Read on to learn more about their company philosophy, favourite flavour, and their super active life on our beautiful West Coast.

Read MoreWe like to think of Valentine's Day as not just about romance, but as a nice reminder to spread some love to everyone around. This is especially important because it falls near the end of winter when, even in the best years, many of us could use a little pick me up. And kind gestures don't have to be restricted to the 14th! The pandemic has gotten many of us into looking for new crafts and tackling DIY projects, so we scoured the internet to handpick a few simple projects you can make yourself that would make really nice gifts for friends/family/neighbours you haven't been able to spend time with—or will just brighten your own home and life. And, of course, we picked ones that have an eco-friendly emphasis. So have a read through and see if one or two of them sound like a fun choice for you!
