Nancy Massotto

Nancy Massotto is executive director of the Holistic Moms Network, a non-profit support and resource organization connecting parents interested in holistic health and green living. Founded by a handful of moms yearning for the support and friendship of others outside the mainstream. Today the group has 120+ chapters across the U.S. and Canada.

How do you eco?

The Holistic Moms Network is a non-profit, grassroots community-building network for parents interested in holistic health and green living. We connect parents who are passionate about natural parenting options from breastfeeding and cloth diapering, to non-toxic/green cleaning and supporting local farmers. As an organization, we Eco by educating parents about ways that they can live sustainably and by helping them to locate local resources to support their choices.

Why did you go eco?

For many of us, becoming a parent opened up a new world of awareness about sustainability. In parenthood, we become conscious of the impact of our choices including how and what we eat and its relationship to our health and well-being, the products we purchase and how they will affect our families, and the options we have to create a healthy future for our children. Understanding how these choices are connected inspires us to make informed decisions.

What’s your favorite eco tip?

Living sustainably is a journey. Start with one small step – seek out organic, locally grown food, replace one cleaning product in your home with a natural solution, change a personal care item to one that is natural, or find a way to reduce your consumption. Each step creates a brighter future.
