LiveGreene

Fun store! We bought some storage cubes made out of recycled paper. They look and feel like wood but are very light. Hope they hold up. Lots of fun kitchen gadgets. They have kids toys/​projects made out of cardboard that look like fun. There is a big cardboard pirate ship that the kids can play in and color. I think our cats would like it, too!

i like this store, it’s green, eco– friendly and carries very useful items. it may be the only one of its kind, at least in downtown palo alto. although, it’s possibly easy to miss b/​c it’s located in a little corner of university & high, behind amber dhara.
they carry all sorts of useful items like bamboo salad claws, wooden cutlery, and other kitchen utensils made with recycled materials. i’m also a fan of their bath and body products as they use only natural ingredients, good for your skin, good for the environment. one of the most unique items they carry is the welcome mat (for your front door) which is made out of recycled flip flops! ingenious!
this is a must-​shop store for anyone who wants to shop and live green.

It’s my «green» store! I walked in and found everything that I had seen online and either wanted to buy or had already bought. Green Toys, LunchBots, KleanKanteen… all the «green» goodies are here. They even sell Wood Thumb ties! Don’t recall seeing gDiapers there though, anyways was in there for a short period of time before having to head back to Cal Train.

Cool. It’s like the Whole Foods of housewares.

What a great store with useful everyday items (ex: food containers, water bottles, bags, etc). Everywhere I looked, there was something I wanted. It’s expensive but it’s great for the environment to use recycled materials, the designs are cool and there are a good amount of options.
The man working the day we went in didn’t greet us or anything. He sat at the cash register and was doing his own thing. It’s okay though, everything was nicely laid out and we didn’t have any questions.

I walked past livegreene many times thinking it was a run-​of-​the-​mill housewares store with a green bent. I couldn’t have been more mistaken. This is a wonderful place for unique gifts for birthdays, hostess or children.
Instead of typical plastic toys they have such unique items that are seriously some of the cutest things I’ve ever seen. I bought (amongst other things) the soft bowling pins that have little stitched faces for a 1 year bday and I had to hide them from my 5 year old. Great puzzles too.
They have seriously beautiful home items and I enjoy gifting something that was made conscientiously.
Well done livegreene!

If you’re looking for a reliable store with eco-​friendly home products, Live Greene is your spot. Always friendly service, and a clean store display. Even their colorful shelving is eco-​friendly, recycled paper furniture from waybasics!
They have a good selection of children’s toys and various dishware and serving tools for your kitchen. I was also impressed by their lunch totes and tupperware items. A great store to buy a thoughtful gift for your tree-​hugging friends (or for yourself!).

This place was great! My guy &our son went here today &they had a lot of awesome things here. Some stuff we’ve picked up at other places but I know are great products &prices are competitive! My son was immediately hooked to their toys &we were impressed by their novelty items as well as their house hold products. The things I found amazing &have yet to see before, was their lunch packing section. They had the packit the reusable lunch bag that keeps your food cold for 10 hrs! As well as dish washer safe reusable sandwich bags. In addition to the common lunch items.
I found the staff to be informative &attentive. They wereeducated &politely informed you on the products they had. Such a great find!

Walked into this shop for the first time today. My little girls are magnets to a cool shop! What prompted them to go into this store was their cute card board playhouse in the front of the store that you can color and draw on. My girls later saw all the other super cool things that were in this store. Let me tell you… WHAT A ECO FRIENDLY FUN STORE!!! Not only is the owner super friendly and nice, if you are looking for a UNIQUE present or bored of the usual places that you shop– CHECK THIS PLACE OUT! Amazing what some things get recycled into. Always remeber to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle! Now I have a new place to shop in Downtown Palo Alto!

Really cute store with all kinds of knick-​knacks that are earth friendly. Hot tea when you walk in and bookshelves full of clever and fun things. A great spot to come to if you need a hostess or any occasion gift. Friendly service. Right next door to Junoon restaurant on University in Palo Alto.

There aren’t that many solely «green stores» so I decided to take a look. The interior is very welcoming with its bright colors and well organized space. There was also a lady giving out tea samples so it made the visit much more enjoyable.
The selection of goods is mostly home accessories and kitchenware. If you’re looking for bigger items such as furniture or clothing, this is not the place. But what they have is a nice selection. The prices aren’t cheap yet if you factor in the environmental impact, fun design, and lasting quality you’re better off with the larger price tag.
I almost bought some lunch dishes and water bottles but I remembered that I already have some. Remember that the best way to be green is to use what you already have.

If you’re looking for toxic free free items this a great place.

I bought 2 of the greatest cutting boards here. They have husk fiber in it, medium sized, and made with recycled materials. I thought after several months they would be worn out and need replacement… nope. They are still like new. They dont slip all over the counter, and the veggies seem to stick in place when Im using it. I LOVE them-​almost as much as I love chopping veggies.
So for my second purchase– the BFF is having a baby– so of course we need safe, green amazingly cool gift items for our newborn precious baby girl. I bought three amazing eco friendly stroller toys at LiveGreene– all for a very reasonable cost! I was running late as usual, so they even gift wrapped in a eco friendly bag for us. wow, thanks!
The shop owner is super cool! Each time I shop, they have lots of new items, that are fantastic and green.
Its awesome that we have such a unique shop as a eco friendly shop with so many affordable one of a kind items for EVERYONE from baby– to the kids– and adults.
Oh goodness … so many cool gifts and oh my the housewares department is amazing. Eek. I might have to buy it all!

Very cool! Tons of awesome, attractive, and useful stuff to meet your home, office, kids, baby, and gift-​giving needs without any eco-​guilt.
In a slightly hard-​to-​see location behind Junnoon, in the former location of the Bead Shop.
And — shocker! Most stuff is very reasonably priced, unlike at certain other self-​righteous stores (yes you, Whole Foods).

This is a very nice and attractive store with fresh a feel to it. David the proprietor is a great conversationalist and truly enjoys interacting with his clientele. He is also on the leading edge for pay technology with Bingcash.
I purchased a small in door planting system this is produce in San Francisco.
I highly recommend this store!

This place is so awesome, I was like a kid in a candy shop! An organic, good for the environment candy shop! They literally have green versions of almost anything you could want. Just the other day I was musing that I need more lunch containers, and sure enough, there was a plethora of options for food storage. I’ve been feeling guilty lately about my increased usage of plastic water bottles (I know – shame); at livegreene, I bought a water bottle with its own little filtration system – genius. (I also loved the cards decorated with sea glass, but at $ 10 a pop, I couldn’t justify the purchase.)
I can’t wait to return and browse more, plus I have at least one staff member on the lookout for a green version of a drip coffee filter. Message me if you find one!
(p.s. Anyone else feel like Gwyneth Paltrow and her GOOP newsletter NEED to know about this place? I sure do.)
