the green house environment shop began its life in 1992 in kuranda as a volunteer- run information centre initiated by the cairns and far north environment centre (CAFNEC) the Far North's peak conservation group. following 12 very successful trading years the green house made the move down the mountain to Cairns, very quickly attracting appreciation and loyalty from the locals. now after 4 years in Cairns the green house, although now privately owned, remains true to its roots by donating a percentage of profits annually to local conservation groups and providing day to day support for conservation and social justice groups including wildlife rescue, amnesty international, the wilderness society, the cairns frog hospital, wildlife rescue and the australian conservation foundation.
