Values

We believe that everyone is an agent of positive change. Here are some of the issues that we feel very passionately about:

• Health: real, long lasting, pharmaceutical-free, glowing health.
• Green everything: technologies, business practices, and lifestyle choices.
• Ethics: this is quite important. This dictates our business culture at House of Verona, in business and personal relationships. Fair prices, fair trade, transparency, and karma.
• Reading between the lines: the constant pursuit of truth, and searching for the hidden agenda in everything.
• Education, education, education.
• Frugal consumerism: minimizing unnecessary consumption and waste, and consciously redirecting excess savings into meaningful causes. Other than what Britney ate for breakfast.

For our guests:

• Minimizing risks and maximizing benefits
• Being transparent & truthful
• Adhering according to the Canadian Ministry of Health’s food inspection safety standards, the Red Cross First Aid safety standards, and the Research Council of Norway for ethics when conducting investigative projects.

Philanthropy

We are so proud to donate a portion of our funds towards Greenpeace, as well as Street Haven at the Crossroads, which is Toronto’s first women’s shelter (est. 1965). We volunteer at Bellwood Health Services on a monthly basis.
