The Sustainable Gifts I am Giving This Year

Here are the Sustainable gifts I am giving this year.

Great products by great companies. Here is this year’s guide.

Lynch Creek Farm Wreaths

I bought these organic wreaths this year for gifts (and for myself) and couldn’t be happier. It is fantastic quality and Lynch Creek Farm is dedicated to sustainable practices. You can read about how they used organic evergreens before the term “organic” was even a thing.

Paula’s Choice Reusable Cotton Rounds

My teenage girls are both getting their own sets of these now that they are engaged in daily face care (toner, exfoliator, etc). These rounds are reusable and compostable when they have reached their limit.

Animal Ear Warmers

These handmade, Fair Trade gifts are adorable. I got the koala and unicorn for my youngest girls. Being a Fair Trade Member means these artisans, who are based in Peru, must receive fair prices for their goods, adhere to safe working conditions, follow sustainable practices, and more.

Allbirds

This shoe company is on track to be net zero by 2030. They measure everything that contributes to their carbon footprint and they aim to use 75% sustainably sourced natural and recycled materials in their products.

Deerfield Ranch Winery

My husband and I celebrated our 18-year anniversary this year in one of our favorite places - Sonoma Valley, CA. During our tour, we visited a wine cave, the home of Deerfield Ranch Winery. Deerfield is a green winery where 98% of the process wastewater is recycled on-site and the vineyards are organically farmed. Their wines are also low in sulfites and histamines. This is a great option if you are entertaining a lot this season or you want to treat a wine-lover in your life.
