Description: Eco and Sprout is a multi-channel, new retail store and learning center that caters to parents seeking sustainable, natural products for their children from birth to toddler age. As the name suggests, my emphasis is to provide ‘Eco-friendly products for little Sprouts’. Eco and Sprout evangelizes the use of cloth diapering in order to keep disposable diapers out of landfills and contaminating waterways as disposable diapers are the 3rd largest consumer item in the landfills; educates parents on the cost-savings of cloth diapering over disposables; supports parents in the use of babywearing products; and advocates breastfeeding and nursing. Eco and Sprout will conduct practical workshops and classes relative to the carefully selected products I will carry. Eco and Sprout will be the only shop in Seattle, WA offering a wide-range of products in three (3) specific departments: Cloth Diapers, Babywearing, and Nursing.
