ICYMI:, We’ve added a special collection of our most eco-friendly products to our store.

The following is a list of some of our favorite Good Stuff that’s not only non-toxic, but will actually help you spend less.

1. Water-Free Cleaning Supplies

Liquid cleaners and laundry soap jugs are heavy and have a high environmental cost to ship. They also COST a lot to ship from manufacturer to retailer to customer, and some of this cost is passed on to you.

We love the brands that are water-free, including Meliora, Tandi’s, Force of Nature, Branch Basics, and Blueland. You’ll spend much less money, and reduce your carbon footprint, too.

  • Everneat All-Purpose Natural Surface Cleaner in Glass Bottle

  • Tandi's tallow laundry soap

    $19.99$28.99

2. Reusable Cleaning Cloths

Microfiber cleaning cloths have a greater surface area than traditional cleaning cloths, allowing them to clean more thoroughly and efficiently. They can be washed and used repeatedly, making them an eco-friendly alternative to disposable paper towels and wipes. Because they can be used with just water, microfiber cloths eliminate the need for cleaning products. Once again, these products cut environmental costs and actual costs simultaneously.
