accidental-greenie eco blog

A stumbling, humbling journey through the world of green...

eco blog

We have learned so much on our seven year journey with Biome eco stores. We know that living green is a bumpy but immensely enriching road. We have taken wrong turns and been misdirected - yet, every day we unearth little gems, celebrate with our passionate producers and enjoy the sights with our conscious-living customers.
This eco blog is the travel notes of Biome founder, Tracey Bailey, and the wonderful Biome team. As we go along, we'll also share some of our favourite natural wonders - they are what the trip is about after all. We are far from experts, but our hearts are our compass.

Passport

accidental greenie: We began Biome in 2003 with our online store. The world of green was a very foreign place back then. We now have two stores in Brisbane, Australia. We are a small business team juggling children, family, friendship, technology, joys, tears and eco-dilemnas a plenty.
