Bohemia Consignment
Bohemia Consignment, located at 111 Rainbow Road is a green business by nature. During its 4 year life it has built a 100% recycled, previously worn inventory. It offers locals access to quality affordable clothing appealing to all styles and sizes. Everything about Bohemia is local – it sources locally, sells locally, the consignors generate revenue that goes back into the Salt Spring community. Proceeds from the annual Stuff It bag sale go to The Stage Coach Theatre School, a local not-for-profit. Lady Minto Thrift Store accepts any left over items. Everyone wins and everything stays local.
Bohemia is very close to a zero waste business. It separates and recycles all paper products, reuses paper tags and recycles all used plastic bags. It uses environmentally friendly cleaning products, washable hand towels, and the soap dispenser contains local soap purchases in bulk.
