Shop our Earth-Friendly Products for Earth Day
The mission of Earth Day is to build and grow the environmental movement in order to create change for our planet and those who live in it. Since Earth Day began in 1970, it has grown to be the largest network to recruit positive environmental action for our planet. In our own efforts to care for and love our planet, we have attempted to sell as many earth-friendly products in our store as we can. We also have a Zero Waste Bar full of sustainable brands and earth-friendly products. For Earth Day, we want to highlight the brands we sell that are putting in extra work to ensure that our planet is healthy and happy. Read our 5 favorite sustainable brands that The Mercantile loves.
1. City Made Green
City Made Green is a sustainable brand with a focus on cleaning. City Made Green began by wanting to provide non-toxic cleanings. They quickly discovered, however, that even the store-bought “natural” cleaning products they thought were safe contained toxins to our health and the planet. City Maid Green is the reflection of a personal journey in creating a green and sustainable home. Shop City Made Green products at The Mercantile at our Zero Waste Bar.
2. OLA Bamboo
To make a real difference, you need to start by taking small steps. OLA Bamboo is a sustainable brand that began their journey with the bamboo toothbrush, because toothbrushes are something that we all use in our daily lives, and which are (almost) always plastic. But they didn’t stop there! Tons of utilitarian objects are disposable and tremendously polluting. So, they started making other eco-friendly products like bamboo utensils and straws, bamboo makeup remover pads, eco-friendly dental floss, and a lot more! Shop OLA Bamboo products at The Mercantile at our Zero Waste Bar.
3. Wet It
Wet-it is a company dedicated to making cleaning your kitchen easy, stylish, and sustainable. Wet-it cloths are extremely versatile, stylish, reusable, sustainable, biodegradable, and compostable all in one! Get rid of wasteful paper towels and sponges, and replace it with this durable, compostable products. Shop Wet-its at The Mercantile online and in-store.
