About Fundamental GREEN
The founder and owner of Fundamental Green, Cindi, has a long history of environmental advocacy. Living in Boston after college, she helped start two of the first recycling centers in the country. She also formed and led a neighborhood organization aimed at improving the quality of outdoor spaces. The group held fundraisers, distributed trash receptacles painted by local artists, and coordinated area cleanups.
Cindi has promoted recycling, sustainable practices, and conscious consumerism with coworkers, roommates, and family for years. Being environmentally conscious has become a larger pursuit since she became a mom.
Protecting our children requires educating ourselves about the products we use. Phthalates, bisphenol A (BPA), PVC, flame retardants, pesticides...these health hazards are sold to us in many products,including children's products; being unaware means putting health at risk.
Dubbed "The Green Lady" by the program director of the local recreation center, Cindi has offered courses such as "Cloth Diapering Made Easy", "Organic Eating on a Budget", and "Going Green at Home"
Cindi and her husband David have two young children with whom they practice attachment parenting, cloth diapering, elimination communication, baby wearing, co-sleeping, and for whom they take great care to use as many healthy and environmentally safe products as possible. They are members of the city food coop and a local community supported agriculture; make their own cereals, breads, dish soaps, laundry detergent, cleaning products, etc.
