Today is a good day around here, because we get to share a BIG new project one of our sustainable directory members has had in the works for months! Eco club member Zuahaza, who you might be familiar with by now (start here, if not!) just released their second ethical home decor collection, called Tyba, meaning "color of fruit" in the Guane language. Below, Tatiana and the Zuahaza team share the story behind some of these vibrant fruits, plus the people and region that inspired this new ... Read More

25 Sustainable Self Care Gift Ideas For Your Stressed Out Pals
Hi, friends! We've been working on a collection of gift guides for the holidays which we're SUPER excited about because it means we get to give a shout out to all of the sustainable brands we've seen over the year!

Ever since my first sustainable living blog back in 2014 (and actually, way before that when I used to ... Read More
This Won’t Change After The Election
How are you feeling, friends? With less than a week out until election day, we wanted to check in. Here in Seattle, we've got our ballots in (and can track them!)... now we wait. I've been thinking about how BIG everything that is happening in the US right now (and around the world too) is, so many of us waiting on so many outcomes and decisions. But let's set that aside for the moment, and think of what will not change come election day, or the day after, or when the clock strikes midnight on ... Read More
90s Fashion Trends You Can Shop Consciously
We don't know how long the 90s will stick around, but they're back in a big way right now... even when it comes to conscious fashion.

Where to Buy Sustainable Joggers
When I first drafted this post, it all seemed so simple. Joggers are everywhere right now. I'd seen a few of my favorite ethical clothing brands selling them, so I didn't think I'd have a hard time rounding up a few more. Turns out, finding out where to buy sustainable joggers requires a bit of digging. So I've been adding to this list over the weeks whenever I come across a cozy new pair. Finally, I have a fairly solid list. Though I'm always on the lookout for more. Where to Buy Sustainable ... Read More
