Free Music For You!


Listen up ecoeverything customers! For the month of August, with every purchase made at ecoeverything Tofino & Victoria, you will receive a FREE music download from Vancouver Island based band Mojave.

A brief bio on the band....

In 2007 Paul and Lisa Jarvis started writing songs together as a mellow release from their hard rock bands. By the time those bands had called it quits, the duo had enough material for the first Mojave album, Stories. The Mojave sound takes Paul and Lisa's hard rock roots and winds in a quieter intensity. Lisa's clear vocals soar over delicate acoustic guitars, viola, violin, and eclectic percussion - weaving melodies, telling stories.

Mojave was voted one of Vancouver's best bands by the readers of the Georgia Straight, and named "promising newcomers" by Billboard Magazine. They recently released their second album called Crow's Funeral.

Check them out at http://www.mojave.fm/

A local business promoting great local music! We love this!

Earth Day Pancake Breakfast a Fundraising Success!

The 7th annual Earth Day Pancake Breakfast in Tofino on the April 25th 'Earth Day Weekend' was a fund raising success for the Raincoast Education Society. $747.31 was raised for the organization, which is a society that hosts educational programs in environmental education and stewardship in the town of Tofino. The Earth Day pancake breakfast is an annual event in Tofino that was started by ecoeverything's owner Gord Johns. The event has, in the last 3 years, blossomed into a full Earth Day Weekend.

The Atlas T



Greenicci's Atlas T's are one of our favorite items for Summer 2010. The t-shirts are a blend of hemp and organic cotton, and are among one of the softest hemp blends we have every carried. The shirts have a nice drape to them, and are somewhat structured, making them a flattering alternative to some of our bamboo jersey tops. They are available in the colours above at Ecoeverything Tofino and Victoria for just $35.00.

Welcome to Our New Blog!

We at Fiber Options Naturals, and Ecoeverything, are excited to introduce a NEW BLOG for our customers and friends! This is a combined blog for our 4 locations of eco-friendly retail stores. We have locations in Victoria, and Tofino BC. We started in 1997 in Tofino, with the first Fiber Options Naturals store. We had a vision to help create an economy based on environmental and social sustainability. With that in mind, we opened our doors to the first store as idealists, at a time when eco-friendly clothing, home items, and accessories, where not easy to come by! In 2000 we opened a Fiber Options Naturals in Victoria. In recent years, we added a third store, Ecoeverything, to our family of businesses. This was always the name of our website, http://www.ecoeverything.com/, and our goal for our stores - to carry everything 'eco'. Therefore it was a natural choice to name our large Tofino location just that. And - as if we weren't already busy enough, we recently opened up a sister store, Cedar Corner Art Gallery, to showcase the amazing artwork created by many brilliant artists here on Vancouver Island.

The Ecoeverything and Fiber Options Naturals stores carry a wide range of eco-friendly clothing, accessories, body care products, and home accessories. You can find clothing made out of organic cotton, soy, bamboo, hemp, merino wool, tencel, modal, recycled fabrics, and much much more! We also house a great selection of eco-friendly accessories including hats, bags, jewelry, scarfs etc.., as well as a fantastic section of locally made - all natural body care products. It doesn't stop there either! We also carry luxurious goodies for your home. You will find smaller gift items such as soy and beeswax candles in our stores, and larger items such as organic bedding and towel sets. The products are not only environmentally friendly, but are also all made in a socially responsible manner.

Our blog is designed to let our customers and friends know about special in-store events, and community projects that we are often involved with. We are committed to a triple bottom line business model. This means that we are equally concerned about our social responsibility and environmental responsibility, as much as our profits. We therefore truly care about our communities, and we get involved wherever and whenever we can!
This blog is also designed to be an information outlet for eco-friendly tips and tricks, a resource guide for eco-friendly fabric information, and a place where people can learn about values based business practices.

We hope you enjoy it!
