Green Shopping in Toronto

Green shopping in Toronto has never been easier, but if you don't know where to start can be hard to find in a city this size.

A good neighbourhood to start is on the Danforth as one of the cities best known organic shops can be found there as well as the Big Carrot which is a green shopping plaza and organic grocery.

This east Toronto neighbourhood is also in close proximity to a number of spectacular farmer's markets.

You can find more than just greek influences in this neighbourhood!

Many childrens stores have also gone green offering organic baby and kids gear.

There is even an off priced retailer dedicated to offering bamboo and organic cottons to the masses!
