Stratus Wines - Environmentally Sustainable Winery

Niagara On The Lake and it's surrounding area is a wonderful place to visit. We especially enjoy the wine tasting, the golf, the B&B's, shopping, and the Shaw Festival. There are some excellent wineries and one in particular is of interest on the Sustainable front. Stratus winery was the first building in Canada to receive LEED gold certification and the only winery worldwide to fully acheive this designation. And, it's a beautiful building, inside and out with delicious wines.


President Barack Obama enjoyed a 2002 Stratus Red at a luncheon last week while making his first offical visit to Canada. How perfectly appropriate!

Linoleum Today

I am huge fan of linoleum and I have specified it many times over the years. I recently saw the latest offering from FORBO and love the new pattern, Striato. I love linoleum it for it's durability, it's great colors, the ability to design endless patterns, and its sustainability due to being made from readily renewable materials. Fantastic product for both Commercial and Residential applications.
