Mean Green Mowers
Since 2008 Mean Green Mowers has been on a mission to replace gas-guzzling, CO2-emitting commercial lawn mowers with fully electric, emission-free models. The CXR 52/60 is a full-size, zero turn mower with power to match gasoline powered models. Charged overnight, it can run for a full day of quiet, fuel-free work. An optional solar canopy shades the driver while extending the life of the mower between charges, and an optional blower cleans up debris with no gasoline needed.

LUUM Tilt Shift
Part of LUUM’s Future Tense textile collection by Suzanne Tick, Tilt Shift looks to the future of fabric. Fast fashion yields hot looks, cheap clothes, and tons of wasted material. But what if we gave that throwaway fabric a second life? Tilt Shift is made from apparel waste that is color sorted, shredded, and respun into 11 color schemes. Featuring a stain repellent finish and an isometric print designed to shift your perspective, this fabric embodies a future with less waste and more foresight.
