Buy Organic

Many folk think that organic food doesn't taste any different from GM food. They are in the most cases right! The food might not taste any different, but how the food has been brought into this world is fundamentally different. We believe that going organic is the best way for the future of food. Genetic modifications in food are not natural and we all have to live in a natural world.

Go Sustainable

If you are still living ‘the throw away culture', then maybe its time for a change. Waste levels in the United Kingdom are growing every year and the majority of the population don't care. Tree2mydoor believes that excess packaging on household goods is totally unnecessary, but most companies still use excess packaging. So what can you do? Simple… use your local recycling centre to recycle as much of your household waste as you can.

Tree2mydoor uses minimal packaging for our goods and we sell a range of living gifts to cut down on wasteful ways.

Support Your Local Economy

Local food producers and general retailers in the UK have had a rough time over the last 15 years. The rise of the British supermarket and the culture of convenience has meant that thousands of local established businesses have quit or are struggling to survive due to national and multinational competition.

Tree2mydoor says, buy local food and support local businesses. You will miss them when they are gone!

Buy Fair Trade

If you want to buy goods that are sourced from abroad, look to see if the goods are produced in fair working conditions. Many local people in third world countries are working hard for ridiculously low amounts of money – equating to slave labour! If you buy goods that are ‘fair trade' it means that you can be rest assured that the people who help produce the goods are treated fairly – so everyone wins.
