About

“We don’t have to engage in grand, heroic actions to participate in the process of change. Small acts, when multiplied by millions of people, can transform the world.”

Hi there, hello and welcome to Sustainable Düsseldorf, a growing community of people with the common interest in living sustainably & shopping locally. Please feel free to browse the topics page to find what interests you, or if you prefer you can check the map where the locations of featured businesses have been pinned.

If you see a business featured on this blog you can be sure that two things are true:

1. I have visited the location and/or tested the product myself.
2. I have not been paid to post any content.

So, then, who the heck am I? My name is Melody and I am a Canadian graphic designer living in Düsseldorf. I am currently in the process of starting my own business with a sustainable product and for me community is everything. Connecting with and supporting businesses who feel the same is important to me. 

I want to make it easy for the people of Düsseldorf to discover sustainable living together. You can keep up to date with new blog posts via the Facebook page, and join in on discussions and regular meetups by joining the Facebook group.

Let’s discover, share & learn together!
