Top Eco-Friendly Products for Winter Gardening and Sustainable Living in 2019
Embrace the winter season with a selection of eco-friendly products designed to promote sustainable living and support winter gardening. This year, the focus is on hardy winter crops and sustainable textiles, as well as innovative gardening techniques that minimise environmental impact.
Winter Gardening
For winter gardening enthusiasts, some of the best eco-friendly crops to consider are cold-hardy greens. These include:
- King Kale: A super hardy and nutritious winter green that thrives in colder temperatures.
- Swiss Chard (especially green-stemmed varieties like Verde de Taglio): Produces well even after the first frost and can last several weeks into cold conditions.
- Mâche (corn salad): Extremely cold-hardy, can overwinter near freezing temperatures, adding variety and nutrition to winter salads.
- Lettuce varieties like Rouge D’Hiver: Surprisingly winter-tolerant and can regrow after frosts, providing fresh greens during cold months.
Growing your own produce during winter reduces the environmental costs of transported vegetables and utilises natural seasonal conditions.
Sustainable Living
Beyond gardening, eco-friendly products include:
- The Jack Wolfskin Texapore Ecosphere Jacket, the world’s first 100% recycled rain jacket, made from recycled PET bottles, completely PFC-free, and manufactured with minimal waste using remnants and recycling materials certified by the Global Recycling Standard.
Sustainable farming practices, such as using hoophouses (high tunnels) to extend growing seasons and protect crops like lettuce during winter, also reflect eco-friendly agricultural methods that reduce energy inputs and improve plant health year-round.
In summary, the top eco-friendly winter gardening products focus on cold-hardy, nutrient-dense greens and sustainable farming structures, paired with revolutionary recycled material clothing that supports sustainable living in 2019.
