Growing Green

The growing green co-op, located in the Green Vibration eco-Plaza, is a health and wellness education resource center.

The co-op is a community of green businesses, individuals, and families working together to minimize our carbon footprints on the earth, while supporting the local economy as conscious consumers. The co-op promotes healthy lifestyle choices which encourage a positive, eco-friendly, and balanced approach to wellness.

Good health is more than the absence of illness- it is a state of welll-being and vitality created by a strong mind-body relationship in connection with spirit.

The co-op offers simple steps and easy solutions to begin living a greener life in harmony with nature and earth.
