Beech Designs is delighted to partner up with some amazing creative and visionary folks.

And Sol Vybz is one of them.
 
Here, we’ll share what Sol Vybz is, behind the scenes, and what it means to support our partnership.

 

Simple Beginnings

 
Sol Vybz's was humbly started by a couple of island sisters (twins), dedicated to keeping the art of handmade goods alive while building a conscious community. With origins in Cape Verde and a base in Florida Sol & Joy find it “important to reflect, digest, and share” their experiences.

Whether it’s to enhance with gemstones, yoga practice, meditation, earthing, or aromatherapy, with which to support focus, clarity, and emotional balance, Sol Vybz’s hand crafted pieces are designed to bring joy throughout the many aspects of life’s journey.

 

Their mission is two fold, to bring and share handmade creations which in turn helps fund preserving and protecting the land and origins of their homeland Cape Verde. A project in process with your help, what happens here on the island is a template that can be used worldwide, people, land, and nature.


Feeding A Larger Vision

Here’s a deeper look of the workings behind the scenes….
 
What is Sol Vybz up to?

 
“Sol Vybz is excited to share we have started to work with some NGO's (non-governmental organization) here in the Cape Verde islands. Assisting with conservation work of the native lands, feeding the biodiversity here, and educating the locals, including the youth, with projects of living sustainability.”
 
 
Please share more about what you are doing with the land.
 
“Currently one of the projects we are looking forward to supporting is Fog catchers to harness water. There’s a lot of water shortages in Brava Island, where flowing water is only accessible a few days a week for majority of the island.
 
There is a lot of fog all around the island, which makes it a perfect place to practice water cultivation. Their NGO there is called Biflores & we would like to help them continue funding this project further.”

Can you please share more about your plans to enrich the lives of the people?
 
“Yes, well being of the people here & their farm lands is important to us. We would like to strengthen the bridge and bring the beautiful roots of the heritage and culture back stronger by original practices that honor the land and in turn feed, fuel, and fulfill the people here.
