Legalizing Hemp (Fabric):

The hemp plants used for fabric and marijuana are two totally different species, making the US prohibition against growing hemp for textiles nonsensical. A hardy plant that produces a fiber stronger than silk, hemp needs little to no chemicals for cultivation. And the first American flag was made out of it.

The RE Store

Reuse Center

Reuse Center

Why It's Good:

The RE Store boasts an incredible inventory of salvaged materials at affordable prices. Some fabulous finds we've spotted: a luxurious two-person antique tub, a beautiful church door, a Groën stainless-steel double boiler, and magnificent 1920s stained-glass windows. They even offer an in-store trade credit!

Why It's Green:

The RE Store not only salvages and sells pieces that would otherwise go to waste, but they also offer pick-ups and whole building deconstruction to maximize reuse. By offering both affordable and sustainable building and decorating options, the RE Store encourages community members to be aware of the impact they're making on the environment.
