Gift buying is always so hard, especially when you’re trying to buy something meaningful! So if you are searching for a gift for an earth-loving person, I think you’ll love these!
Personally, my boyfriend and I have never *loved* giving gifts for every conventional holiday.
But when we do give gifts, I am a big believer in meaningful, thoughtful gifts that will encourage health, prosperity, and growth. I also want to make sure that our $$$ goes to businesses that are making a positive impact, whether that means they don’t use chemicals and unnecessary additives or they provide responsible packaging (little to no waste!)
Spa Gift Certificate
Honestly, you can never go wrong with gifting a spa experience (for any occasion). Whether it’s a massage, a facial, or a simple pedicure, you’re helping to encourage health and relaxation for your loved one. WaySpa is such a great option for this! Basically, you buy a gift card for WaySpa, and your recipient can choose where to use it and for what treatment! WaySpa partners include urban hotel spas, ultra-luxurious day spas, salon spas, wellness spas, yoga studios and more all over the country.
Natural Soap Collection
I got this soap collection from Crate 61 for Christmas and I couldn’t get enough! They’re vegan, cold-pressed, and only use premium essential oils. This means they don’t only smell amazing, but they also don’t contain any unwanted chemicals! And hey, if you aren’t buying gifts, I highly recommend buying this for yourself. While this set is unisex, there’s also a “For Him” set here: https://amzn.to/2Rfzy7n
Organic, Fair-Trade Coffee
If your gift recipient is a coffee lover, treat them to some high-quality coffee! This one from Bean Head is Premium, Organic, Fair Trade, and Canadian-Roasted. What more could you want in a coffee?? And since these are whole beans, you can pair it with a grinder such as this one: https://amzn.to/36jiull
Tea Herb Growing Kit
If you have a tea-lover in your life, this may be a perfect gift for them! This kit includes everything they would need to grow and harvest fresh herbal teas. If tea’s not their thing, the same company has a micro-green growing kit here: https://amzn.to/37jpAaK
Organic Tea Collection
If you have a tea-loving friend or partner but know that they don’t have a green thumb, they would love this Organic Tea Collection from Numi! I love and respect the Numi brand. Their exceptional-tasting teas are captured in unique, globally inspired, blends that use high quality organic, non-GMO ingredients directly sourced from Fair Trade gardens. Numi combines premium full-leaf quality teas and herbs with only 100% real fruits, flowers and spices.
Insulated Travel Mug
If they can’t live without their morning tea or coffee, a great gift is a high-quality, durable travel mug that’ll keep their beverages warm and withstand their morning commute, spill-free. This is also a great gift if you are wanting to inspire someone to live in a more eco-friendly way — no more takeout cups in the landfill!
Organic, Fair-Trade Chocolate
If your gift recipient loves chocolate, try out some more sustainable, organic, and fair-trade chocolate options. Believe me, you’ll taste the difference! Green and Black’s is one of my favourite organic chocolate companies. Most of their dark chocolates are dairy-free, which is great for your plant-based lovers! Such as this one: https://amzn.to/38ta3VW
Note that the tasting collection above does contain some milk chocolate.
Natural Bath Products
All-natural bath products are always a great gift! These bath teas are my own handmade product that are made out of pure epsom salts, flowers, herbs, and essential oils. If you’re local (Oshawa or Kingston) and are interesting in purchasing any, you can find more info here and contact me at makayla.dewit@gmail.com
If you aren’t local, there are so many great all-natural bath products such as these bath bombs!
I hope you (and your lover!) like some of my healthy and eco-friendly gift recommendations! If you can think of others, let me know down below.
