Our kiddo shelf has been filling up 🙂

Over the past couple of years, we’ve kept adding baby care you can refill or pick up in shop. In case you hadn’t thought to restock for your little eco warriors here, this is your prompt! My haul this week:

+ Tear-Free Baby Shampoo & Body Wash (refilled!)
+ Diaper Balm made locally from diaperstork
+ Bamboo Child’s Toothbrush

There’s also refillable Baby-Friendly Lotion, Tear-Free Bubble Bath, Play Bubbles, and Baby Laundry Powder. I also recommend you pick up some some Baby Wipe Spray Concentrate, a Reusable Baby Pouch and lots of Stain Remover Spray 😆.

We just had a request for a hairbrush for toddler hair (our baby brush is a little too soft) that we’re looking into. What other kids/baby items would you like to see us carrry in shop?

Sustainable spooky season is here! Highlighting a couple shop favs that might get you in the 🎃 spirit:
+ Biodegradeable body glitter from Zerra & Co. | Zero Waste Makeup & Skincare
+ Non-toxic nail polish from Seven Seas

The containers for both of these can be returned to the shop when they’re empty! ♻️

Heads up to our conditioner lovers:
Our longtime favorite, Carina Organics, is based in Canada and has been a fantastic partner through the ongoing tariff saga. Unfortunately, conditioners (why not shampoo? Your guess is as good as ours) were included in the latest round of tariffs, so it’s no longer economical for them to ship conditioners to the U.S. for now.

Don’t worry, we have inventory to last a while. But some scents will eventually sell out, so if you have a favorite, now’s the time to stock up! Once we’re out of a Carina option, our team can recommend a similar alternative, so you’ll always have a conditioner option here!

Oh, and please be nice to the team. It’s not their fault. 😊

10% of our sales Fri-Sun will be donated to the 8 (Northwest Immigrant Rights Project) to help fund direct legal services for immigrants and advocate for systematic improvements in our *complex* immigration system.

The actions of ICE continue to enrage us. Seeing them increasingly active in our neighborhood — as close as 2 blocks away — really hits home.

This little shop runs on community, and we won’t forget that.

We also have a few extra whistles in the shop. If anyone still needs one, just ask!

Embracing the cloudier days ☁️
If you’re in the same headspace, we have a new lip butter from No Tox Life… pair it with our favorite cotton hair towels from Marley's Monsters to make a delightful gift or for a little low-waste self-care!

Pumping, scooping and pouring what big box stores call “fast-moving consumer goods” (FMCG), which are products that have a high turnover. The idea is that we offer a replacement for the items that you quickly accumulate the most plastic in without thinking about it. We focus on this category because it’s where we can make the biggest impact together 🫶

We have laundry, dish, cleaning, hair, body, shaving, dental products + more. Link in bio for full refill menu! What do you want to see next? 👇

Tough climate news week. Let’s not give up.

The latest UN climate report determined it is now likely unavoidable that we will pass the 1.5°C threshold scientists warned us about. And now we’re mitigating damage.

Our shop is small, and we certainly will never reach the impact a fossil fuel company or big tech company could at reversing the course of damage. But we believe small actions add up, and our PUBLIC community can be a part of “limiting” the damage we do to the planet.

Recommended read: Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson wrote a really helpful / action positive breakdown of the report in her substack (we’ll link in our story post)!

We believe, as she argues, that incremental decisions matter just as much as big transformational change at this point… on food security, safety, and stability for billions of people.

So keep advocating for big transformational change through your vote and voice… but also keep bringing that jar to refill🫙😊
