Greenheart UAE
The Greenheart Farm had very humble beginnings. 20 years ago, Greenheart founder Elena Kinane started out on her apartment balcony in Bur Dubai!! Recovering from a chronic illness she was determined to eat only the freshest organic Greens. Coming from an eco-friendly background she grew up surrounded by vegetable patches and fruit trees.
In 2009 Elena took the plunge and set up Nazwa Organic Farm together with a group of friends. Although short lived, its temporary success convinced Elena that growing genuine organic produce on a larger scale in the UAE desert was possible.

Story of Source
Story’s story (no pun intended) has been long in the making, but it was a trip to Guatemala in October 2018 where Story of Source was born. Guatemala gave our intent color, our dreams shape and further fueled our desire to preserve and nourish indigenous craft in a fair and sustainable manner.
It is our hope that with every collection, Story will help sustain indigenous craftsmanship and encourage artisanry, a dying art in many parts of the world.

Lokal of the month
Mleiha
Mleiha, a UNESCO-nominated World Heritage Site in the Central Region of the Sharjah map, is home to a number of significant sites, including Bronze Age tombs and pre-Islamic forts. Fascinating artifacts and fossils were discovered here, including pottery, iron tools and camel skeletons. The Mleiha Archaeological Centre, which opened in 2016, houses these discoveries and even more artifacts that uncover ancient UAE history.
The centre also offers a range of tours and activities. You can explore the archaeological sites or venture into the sand dunes with a desert safari. Alternatively, you can also try other desert adventures like riding a quad bike or dune buggy over the sand. If you prefer to go on foot, consider trekking to Camel Rock for an expansive view of the desert. The surrounding area is a beautiful location for a desert camp on soft dunes and under glittering night stars.
