Who We Are

F.W. Horch Sustainable Goods & Supplies is a locally owned store in downtown Brunswick, Maine. We provide trustworthy advice and practical products that you can use to help save the planet.

Fred Wilson Horch, the founder, is a former corporate attorney, computer geek, private pilot, and professional environmentalist. Moving to Brunswick in 2002, where his wife is an assistant professor of neurobiology at Bowdoin College, Fred helped launched green electricity in Maine as the Project Coordinator for Maine Interfaith Power & Light.

If Fred's not on hand, Brett Thompson, Hillary Shende, Debbie Atwood, Mandy Russell, or Jill Victor are here to help you. All of us are committed to providing excellent service, honest recommendations and great products.

Our store started out as the Brunswick location of The Green Store. In the summer of 2006, we became an independent store with a tighter focus on helping our customers save the planet.
