"Why are we being forced to choose between the economy and the environment? We tend to forget that without an environment we would not have an economy, as everything we consume and I mean everything comes from our environment."
~ Franke James (contemporary artist, photographer, writer)
Beijing's landfills are getting full fast! Reduce the "trash" you throw away by purchasing products with minimal packaging. Look for reusable, recyclable, and biodegrable items and remember to carry your reusable shopping bags!

Some of you already know Teresa and her farm, God’s Grace Garden (GGG), but few have been to the farm itself. This is a farm running more on bio-dynamic practices (a higher standard than organic) other than organic standards. As spring is approaching, there will be an open farm day on the 11th of April at GGG! Teresa wants to invite members of her farm and anyone who is interested to know the farm to spend some time together there, so visitors can let her know what kind of produces they would like to have for this year and members may give feedbacks on products and services. | ||
