At the Rudolf Steiner Health Center, we have a passion for restoring health, in all shapes and forms. We work very hard to maintain high environmental standards and sustainable practices to keep all life forms healthy and thriving. Here are some of the actions we take to do so:

Rain water collecting
Composting Keeping bees Growing our own herbs and some vegetables without any harmful substances, using collected rain water Shopping for local produce at farms and farmers markets Making 95% of our meal components from scratch, including yogurt, kvass, hummus and many other items in our kitchen, which saves packaging and transport Making our own cleaning agents Using environmentally safe and biodegradable detergents and cleaning agents Labeling patient linens to reduce laundry Hanging laundry to dry Turning off refrigerators between uses Reducing air conditioning through timed and guided airflow Staff members often bike, walk, or take the bus to work Medicines are made sustainably Not purchasing plastic or items packaged in plastic Recycling paper, glass, cardboard, metal products Reusing materials Purchasing recycled products Using CFL lightbulbs
Future plans: Changing parking lot to permeable material Installing solar panels |
