I love searching Etsy stores for zero waste goodies from independent makers. Be sure to read each shop’s descriptions and policies, and DM them for any questions you have. I know there are plenty of misleading businesses operating on Etsy (it’s such a large marketplace), but if you are a discerning buyer, you can find incredible small brands to support in your sustainable living journey. If you shop there, make sure the brand describes the item thoroughly, discusses how it will be shipped (no one wants a zero waste kit shipped in plastic, ahem, Amazon), and that the price point makes sense for what you’re purchasing!

Of course, if you have a zero waste or bulk/refill store in your city, it’s most sustainable to buy local! However, if restrictions due to the pandemic or lack of options in your area have brought you to shopping online, it’s nice to know that these shops are also committed to low waste and plastic-free packaging! ✌️
