Bec Hartnett - Founder
I believe that wellness is a goal achieved one small step at a time.
Welcome to the Eco and Us. I am delighted you are here.
My name is Bec Hartnett, and I believe that small steps in the right direction can make a BIG difference. As a mum, I am constantly striving to make better choices for the sake of my family’s health and wellbeing.
After battling for a long time with my own health issues, I realised that the “natural products” I had long been patronising weren’t natural at all, and not only that, they were having a serious, on-going impact on my health. I knew something had to change, but it didn’t really hit home until the day I welcomed my son into the world. I felt an enormous responsibility (as new parents do!) for giving my little human the best possible start in life.
That was when my vigilance truly began into natural, eco-friendly, nasty chemical-free products.
What I discovered was pretty scary (*insert Mummy guilt emotion here*). There is definitely a lot of noise out there from fake “natural” brands. But I did learn was that through making simple conscious changes daily, we all can have a role in not only ensuring the wellbeing of our family’s health, but also for our environment.
And so, Eco and Us was born. We are a place to find all products and services ranging from real whole foods, green living, clothing, skincare, natural therapists and everything in between. We want to inspire and provide the resources that make it easy to
shop eco-friendly, natural brands, so families can start making small, conscious choices towards a healthier life.
Because after all, we are what we repeatedly do.
