We have all heard the 3 R’s of being eco-friendly: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. Let’s focus on the first R: Reduce. You can make the biggest impact on our environment by skipping the plastic bag at check out, opting to bring your own jars or containers from home for bulk items, and ditching the single-use items that togo drinks typically come in. At MaMa Jean’s Natural Market we encourage all of our customers and employees to be mindful consumers. Being an eco-friendly, mindful consumer takes a bit more planning but it is so worth it in the long run.
