Ahoy there!

Welcome to the first ever Squashbucklers City Guide.

What is a squashbuckler you ask?

Drawing from the term swashbuckler, a squashbuckler is someone who finds a sense of fulfillment in travel, has an active environmental and social conscience, and appreciates silly words :). So, if you fit that description in any way, then welcome aboard!

We’re glad you’re here.

These guides focus on sharing and highlighting the natural food stores, restaurants, products, and places of nature special to the featured city. Whether they emphasize organic foods, farm-to-table dishes, high-quality and allergy-free ingredients, or natural beauty and conservation efforts, we want to highlight the companies and local businesses that really care about the health of the environment, their communities and their customers.

Traveling involves trying new restaurants and discovering new places, but it’s easy to stray off course if you haven’t properly prepared or aren’t aware of your options. Our goal is to be the go-to spot for travelers looking to dive into the heart of a city without feeling the need to compromise their values or desire to live a natural lifestyle.

So, whether you’ve been an organic foodie from the womb, or you’re just starting to delve into the vast and vibrant world of natural living, our travel guides will be a great addition to your journey! Hop on board and sign up for our emails below to let us know what you’re interested in and to see features of our favorite places.
