Natural
products and furnishings for a healthy, beautiful home.
The 20th century brought
phenomenal advances for mankind. However, this progress has come
at a price that we are just beginning to understand. In fact, daily
life
for many inhabitants of our planet has become a challenge
as environmental influences have upset nature's delicate balance—in
the wild, in rural areas, in our cities, in our homes, and
even in our bodies. Modern life exposes us to a vast array of chemicals,
radiation, and pollution in
the foods we eat, in the air we breath—especially indoors,
in the water we drink, and in the products that have become a part
of our daily life.
At the beginning of the 20th century the rate of cancer was about
1 in 1000. At the beginning of the 21st century, just 100 years
later, the rate is 1 in 3. Most of us have stared this killer in
the eyes
as
it afflicted
friends
and
family,
some
in
their 40s, 30s, or even younger. Many
in the baby
boomer generation have witnessed our parents'
decline in their senior years in ways that our grandparents didn't
experience, even if they lived to a ripe old age. We have felt
anxious as we observed an alarming increase in serious childhood
illnesses and developmental disorders. And we are slowly but surely
becoming aware of the irreversible devastation that conventional
industry and the excesses of our modern lifestyle are having on
the earth we all share.
This website offers products that will help you reduce
the threat of illnesses caused, at least in part, by environmental
influences... Alzheimer's disease, asthma, heart disease, SIDS,
autism, depression, arthritis, allergies,
immune
system dysfunction, fibromyalgia,
central nervous system dysfunction, anemia, emphysema, chronic fatigue
syndrome, as well as most forms of cancer. We bring you non-toxic
products such as mattresses, bedding, furniture, carpeting,
water
filtration systems and air purifiers that
we have researched for use in our own home to protect our family,
in hopes
of helping
you
create a cleaner indoor environment for you and your
loved ones.
This will be a continually expanding product line-up as
we do the legwork for
those of you who want to protect your family's health. Other products
and resources that we provide on this site include:

treatment.

Organic • Green • Sustainable
Pollution from toxic chemicals and global warming are CRITICAL
issues today. If we don't reverse the environmental degradation
and destruction caused by the use of toxic chemicals and fossil
fuels, the outlook for our children's future on this earth
is bleak.
The organic and natural/sustainable-source products we offer
are not only good for your healthy, they are good for the environment...
Pacific
Rim non-toxic, natural, solid wood bedroom furniture: Made
from Western maple harvested as a secondary item during
softwood harvests. The hardwood supplier has received
a certificate to sell “Chain of Custody” products
under the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) rules. Every
possible board foot of maple is used in production, and
the smallest off-fall is donated to local schools and
community centers or to low-income families for heat
during the winter months.
Earthweave non-toxic,
natural wool carpeting and rugs: 100% sustainable
resource floor covering. This carpet and padding is 100%
biodegradable and will decompose in a landfill, unlike
floor coverings made from recycled petrochemical-based
products like pop bottles. (Virtually all consumer floor
coverings end up in a landfill after use.)
Pure-Rest natural
latex (rubber) mattresses covered with organic cotton and
wool; natural latex pillows: Unlike synthetic
rubber made from petroleum, natural rubber is a renewable
resource, there are no toxic substances or ozone-depleting
agents used in its production, and rubber plantations help
combat the greenhouse effect.
Pure-Rest organic cotton and
wool bedding: Organic agriculture doesn't
use toxic, persistent pesticides and herbicides. The manufacture
of organic bedding uses no formaldehyde, flame-retardants
and other toxic chemicals, and produces no dioxins from
bleaching. Colors are produced using low-impact environmental
dyes.
