As business owners, no matter how busy we get, we always make sure to go outside every day because you can't accomplish anything for your business if you don't take care of yourself first. Our community🌎. Be conscious🍃. Be conscientious 🌿.
Just finished packing some Pink Grapefruit  Dishwashing soap. Filling soap by hand is an art form that we have yet to master but our local soap makers aka @becleannaturally are pros at doing this. Every step and every action has to be well planned to make the process as efficient as possible because at the end of the day, our company competes with businesses who not only make the soap with machines, but they also use these to package their products. So when you buy Be Clean Naturally soap from us, please always keep in mind that this soap gave jobs to people, not machines. Our community 🌎. Be conscious 🍃. Be conscientious 🌿.
For the last 2 years, our company has been filming our local diversified farm, @laughingcroworganics. Watching these two in action has been one the most educative and enriching experience of our lives. Often, we don't think about where our food comes from or the work that goes into growing it. The dedication and knowledge that Kerry & Andrew possess has been pretty inspiring, to say the least. They'll be the first to shrug off compliments and this is why we can't wait to share this so everyone can see what they do! Our community🌎. Be conscious🍃. Be conscientious 🌿.

A while back, we attended a foraging workshop with Michelle Nelson - @therurbanist - where we learned about how we can use what naturally grows around us to feed and heal ourselves. Her book, The Urban Homesteading Cookbook, focuses on ways we can do this while keeping a healthy balance with the Earth. One thing she speaks about is ways of preserving food so it can be eaten at a later date.  This, has been one of our goals for a long time - eating local produce all year round while re-using the glass each year to reduce our waste. We are currently talking to farmers & canning/fermenting  pros  but as we'd like to hold these once a month in Squamish and Whistler, we need as many people as possible to take part so if you know anyone who does this already, please send them our way. Note: More food making classes in the works because we all know cooking is so much more fun when you do it with others. Our community🌎. Be conscious🍃. Be conscientious 🌿.
This is the end product from our infamous soak 🥛. Milk can be made from pretty much anything and although you can strain it for using in coffee, it’s not really necessary. It can be added to granola, smoothies, sauces or can be drunk straight up! The milk pictured was made using the following: - Cashews: 3/4 Cup (soaked overnight) - Sesame Seeds: 1/4 Cup (soaked overnight) - Dates: 5 (Medjool) - Maple Syrup: 1 Tbsp - Purified Water: 4 Cups - Vanilla: 1 Tbsp - Cinnamon: 1 Tbsp INSTRUCTIONS: - Put ingredients in a blender. - Blend :) Enjoy!

A day in the life of a soaker 🌱! So did we ever think we would be soaking beans and nuts to make milk every week? Definitely not but we’ve learned things that made us realize we had to start doing this. Whether it’s the plastic lining the food cans we eat from, to the additives and preservatives that come in ready-made foods/milks, these are a few of the reasons we started doing this. And believe it or not, it’s so easy. It’s all about planning ahead! Every two or three days, this scenario takes place in our households. You have the beans, which will be added to whatever we’re cooking that week, the milk ingredients (this weeks is cashew and sesame seeds which is great for coffee) and hemp and sunflowers for the weekly dip that usually gets added to sandwiches or gets eaten with veggies/bread. We let the soak start in the morning before we leave for work or at night, before we go to bed. 1. The beans just need a bit of stock, salt & pepper and then they can be simmered for half an hour to two hours depending on the bean. They then can be eaten this way or added to anything you’re cooking. 2. The milk is simply 4 cups of purified water, 5 dates, 2 Tbsp of Maple Syrup (optional), 1 Tbsp of vanilla (optional), 1 Tsp of Cinnamon (optional) and blend. This will keep for 3 days and is a great base for smoothies. 3. Last on the list is the dip that is filled with tons of protein! Add a cup of purified water, 2 lemons, 3 Tbsp of nutritional yeast, 1 Tsp of salt, 1 Tbsp of garlic salt (optional) and blend. Note: the reason we used purified water is that it makes our recipes last longer. The same goes if you make homemade creams. Enjoy! Our community🌎. Be conscious🌿. Be conscientious 🌿.
Being surrounded by nature every day is probably the main reason why we are so motivated to give our customers choices that will give the 🌏 a break. So take the time to go play outside because it not only keeps you young and healthy but it also reconnects you to the only thing we humans really need - aka fresh air and sweet views! Here’s to getting outside everyday. Our community🌎. Be conscious🌿. Be conscientious 🌿.
