Welcome to Family Eco Life!

An eco conscious hub designed to highlight all the ‘greener’ places to eat, stay, shop and play on the beautiful Sunshine Coast, Queensland.

My name is Trish and I’m a mum and wife who is on a journey to live and explore more consciously. I have come from a 15 year career in the travel and tourism industry where I specialised in creating and leading small group experiences around the world. Researching and then experiencing first hand the best places to stay, eat, shop and play with small footprint suppliers in destinations ranging from Australia to Africa and everything in between.

Now as a full time mum I still love discovering all these things, just a little closer to home. As a family, we feel so lucky to call this stunning part of Queensland home and to be surrounded by such an extensive variety of things to do.

We are spoilt for choice when it comes to beautiful nature walks, stunning beaches, national parks and interesting places to explore. This region is also home to many inspiring environmentally and socially conscious small businesses who are producing innovative eco friendly products as well as a multitude of restaurants, cafes and accommodation providers who have joined the low impact movements. Family Eco Life is all about having a resource where all these small eco conscious businesses, activities and events are accessible in one place.

There are also a variety of community events and workshops on offer throughout the year which provide recreational, educational and hobbyist opportunities in the world of eco, nature and earth wise living.

As a family who are enjoying a journey into a more ethical and eco friendly lifestyle, we hope to share all that we have learnt and continue to discover with you here in this space. Whether you’re a long time local, visitor or new family relocating to the area, I hope Family Eco Life helps you discover all the ‘greener’ things the Sunshine Coast has to offer.

Thankyou for stopping by!
