​In Zambia we met Annemieke, from Green Fox Organics. Apart from her organic farm and veggie box, she also sells beautiful bags, made by the ladies who work on her farm. They collect used plastic shopping bags and crochet them into a durable and fashionable bag. We've bought one to send home.

​This way the shopping bags don't end up on the side of the street but get a second, much longer life. And the ladies that make them earn a bit  extra to support their families.

De groene draad

We set out on a pilgrimage of hope, our goal is to discover what each of us can do about the ecological crisis. We visit places, people and projects all over the world to personally hear the cry of the earth and her inhabitants and to see and experience what people are doing to bring about change. Here we share what we find.
