About Hippy Grandma

Hippy Grandma Ventures Ltd. is an on-line “for benefit”, family run retail business catalyzed by Zoey Ryan. Hippy Grandma is based in a small seaside town near Vancouver, B.C, Canada. We function as a “business wisdom & marketing e-spiral” and are growing organically, using social media and word of mouth marketing! We are a heart centered business and function as a unique eco-boutique. We have a small staff and a smaller advertising budget and believe in the power of attracting our perfect customers through you and your good words.

Help us keep the hippy love flowing for generations!

Our purpose: we sell luscious eco-friendly, unique baby gifts and other treasures on-line to support the economic growth of women and care for children and mothers of the earth.

We weave in the principles: of conscious capitalism and the triple bottom line.

We believe: as does the Right Honourable Michaëlle Jean (Canada’s Governor General) and Kofi Annan (former UN secretary-general), “that the future of the world rests on women’s shoulders.”

We believe: that elder women, particularly “grandmas” (spirit grandmas and birth grandmas) carry the wisdom forward and are a re-emerging “wisdom council” for the world.

We believe: that as the women of the world continue to increase their financial security, the children of the world benefit.

We believe: in the harmony of natural law.

We believe: in the goodness of people, in kindness, in joy, in the future.

We honour and respect: our elders, the children of the planet and Gaia herself.
