For those of us who are even a tiny bit interested in conservation & nature and donot consider the term “Environmentally Friendly” as just another cli·ché, here’s a new shop “Naturally Yours” in Chembur you must visit , next time you are around the Chembur Station area….

I get impressed by little things… Paper bag, Soap and the samples of the organic tea |
I have been thinking to visit Naturally Yours, since I got a pamphelt through my newspaper a few weeks back. I finally did yesterday.
I must say, when I visited yesterday during my lunch hour , was quite surprised to note that “IT WAS A LITTLE PLACE”, especially seemed so, after what us Chemburites have been introduced to off late, Supermarkets!!!!. If right now, if you are getting a picture of BigBazar or FoodBazar in your heads , then this is not a place for you to try out…
If you can pardon me another cli·ché, ”Good things comes in small packages”. The shop seems just big enough , but they do have a stock of quite a few organic stuff. Since my sole purpose was a site visit ( and had to get back to work ), and as I’m not the person currently incharge of kitchen , I dint shop at the store!!!
Having said that, I did buy a nice organic soap ( I was impressed with the packaging, recycled, i mean!) . The friendly young lady at the store , also gave me some free samples of some organic/herbal tea…
The acid test …. I was asked if i wanted a carry bag … Humm! It sounded like LOST HOPE!!!! Unfriendly poly carry bags to carry my organic stuff ? NO I said!!! and there came a reply, the bags are recycled too … Paper Bags!!!!
Not many shops, in Chembur, except a few like FabIndia, provide recycled paper bags … Well! if not more , we have one more. Baby steps but we are getting environmentally friendlier. Thanks to people like Vinod Kumar (owner) , for doing their bit to educate us and contributing towards our future !!!!
WELL! and what I want to add is , I am not a person who likes to write reviews about shops and businesses, or atleast this is my first one…. but since i was impressed, I thought I must write this recommendation …
“Such businesses/establishments needs to be encouraged for doing their bit for our collective future and also to show that such tiny initiatives by local business ARE APPRECIATED by people …
PLEASE DO VISIT Naturally Yours!!!!”
P.s. The Soap is worth it and the tea was nice!
