SMALL CHANGES ADD UP

If 10,000 SF Biters opt for a rocking chair made from salvaged wood rather than virgin wood, we'll save about 217 trees.

The Bite

Aroused by the prospect of new furniture? Poke your head into Madera Furniture's showroom, and satisfy your needs. With everything from rustic cabinets to mod-ish slab tables to simple, sleek garden furniture (MF's focus right now), you'll find something to open, close, sit, or spin around in. Every handmade piece (including the redwood rocking chair we're currently coveting) is one of a kind, made from sustainably harvested wood or landfill-bound wood salvaged from within about 20 miles of the Fairfax shop, which means less transport pollution. The water-based stains are low-VOC, and MF uses natural oils for outdoor seals. It's a stand-up operation.

Wanna Try

Madera Furniture, 1587 Sir Francis Drake Blvd., Fairfax (415-516-3567). Rocking chair, $375.
