As parents to two young girls, my wife and I began to reassess our daily habits and how they affect the environment. Our daughters look to us for guidance and we realized our job is to provide them with healthy habits for both themselves and the planet. We began using natural bath and body products, transitioned to plastic-free alternatives for everyday items, and started cooking more plant-based. While this is my first foray into the zero waste industry, in my last life I founded and ran a company whose mission was to drive healthy, sustainable, earth-friendly snacking in the office.  When the pandemic hit and offices closed, I wanted to continue to run a business that had a positive impact on the planet. 

Our family's personal journey toward sustainable living has taught us that it is equally challenging and rewarding, so we’re here to make it as easy as possible for you! Every product in The Unwaste Shop has been tested and pre-approved by us. We understand how much work it takes to find eco-friendly products that have natural ingredients, sustainable packaging, and transparent business practices, so we’ve done all the research for you. We only offer our favorite products and love everything we sell in our store. Many of the brands we carry are a combination of local, small businesses, women-owned, or Certified B Corporations!
