About Us
 Just
Living's philosophy grew from our own experiences which made us very
conscious of our personal consumption. We felt it was important to
provide these alternative options to others. We sought out products
that had as little impact on the environment as possible and only
work with companies who support an economy that includes fair
treatment of employees, good working conditions, fair labor practices
and a living wage. We like to think we vote with our dollars, so we
encourage you to purchase environmentally sustainable products that
will improve the health of the planet and the farmers that grow the
crops. These choices will improve your health and well being too. On our site
you'll find U.S. made, sustainably harvested oak, maple, cherry and
walnut bed frames and furniture. Organic bedding including toppers, comforters, sheets and
pillows. Our eco home products include bath and kitchen towels, table
linens, baby products, recycled glassware, wooden eco kitchen
products, organic cotton clothing and more. Our main
intention from day one was to promote truly organic, sustainable and
environmentally sound home products and clothing. We are happy we've
been able to provide healthy alternatives to conventional synthetic
textiles and bedding all of these years, before it became
popular to be "green", before "green" went
mainstream! Mainstream
"greenwashing" has become so much more prevalent. Companies
are jumping on the bandwagon to cash in on so called "green"
products. Similar to "whitewashing" in politics,
"greenwashing" is when a company or organization spends
more time and money claiming to be “green” than they really are.
More money is spent on advertising and marketing these claims, than
is spent on improving they're own business practices that would
actually minimize their impact on the environment.
