Spring is a season of renewal and getting back outside,
making it the perfect time to refocus on ways to
enjoy and protect this place we call home. While
"going green" might just seem like the
current fad, earth-friendly living – making
wiser use of our resources – will continue
to be important. That's why you'll find simple ways
to make a difference throughout Fred Meyer. Here
are 6 examples… |

It's
time to open the curtains, let in the sunshine
and start that spring cleaning! This year, make
your home fresh and clean with products that are
also gentle on your family, pets and environment.
Check out the benefits

Organic
produce is grown without synthetic fertilizers,
pesticides or genetic engineering and processed
without artificial preservatives, colors or flavors.
With over
100 organic fruits and veggies in your Fred
Meyer produce department, you can go organic without
going to a specialty store, or going over your
budget.

As
part of the larger ecosystem, everything you use
on your yard affects water supplies, surrounding
plants, insects, animals and your family. Organic
gardening doesn't mean letting weeds run rampant
or slugs roam free – you can still create
a beautiful garden with these organic
gardening tips and products. |

Save
money on gas, get outside and have fun exercising
(yes, it is possible) with this zero emissions
form of transportation. Whether you're thinking
of biking to work, the store or the park, explore
the benefits
of biking and bike safety basics. |

Last
year over 22 billion single-use water bottles
ended up in the trash! And the ones that made
it to the recycling center still took a huge amount
of oil and other resources to produce. Make the
switch to a high quality reusable
aluminum water bottle that will last for years.

How
many plastic grocery bags does your family use?
About 400 a year, if you're an average family.
By using just 3 strong, easy-to-carry Reusable
Fred Meyer Shopping Bags instead, you can
replace all those plastic bags. |
