We also work to constantly improve the day-to-day sustainable business practices in our office, landscaping operation, and garden center. Gardens of Babylon staff agree to these guidelines in order to help us maximize our role as a business actively engaged in supporting sustainable business and personal practices. A few of the things we’re working on…
- A comprehensive sustainable purchasing, reuse, and recycling program for all facets of the company.
- Shifting towards paperless office practices.
- Using and selling only 100% non-toxic products.
- Using propane and biodiesel to power our vehicles.
- More engagement with other green businesses and the community on sustainable issues through partnership, education initiatives, and mutual local green business building.
- Continuing education about the negative effects of using exotic invasive plants and recommending alternatives to our clients.
- Shifting more garden center inventory purchasing to local vendors and vendors who use sustainable growing, packaging, and transportation processes.
- Becoming “green” and “carbon neutral” certified.
