Hi!

My name is Melissa Hester

In my journey as a student, I was interested and passionate about two things that I was trying to learn more about, interior design and how to live more eco-friendly and sustainably. After more thought, I decided to combine those two elements into the concept, Green Box. From there I spent time researching, reading, and interviewing various local sustainable and eco-friendly locations and organizations, such as TUGI, Plant Chicago, Urban Growers Collective, and many more. All in effort to understand the principles and techniques that can be easily incorporated into everyday life of those interested in trying. Over time, I hope to inspire more people and organizations to think about the ways they can contribute to a more greener alternative. With Green Box, I want to start the path towards that direction, one where sustainable and eco-friendly choices are always consider first.
