Earth Day 2022


Earth Day is a global event celebrating the positive changes we can make to help improve our world for the better. It's a time to reflect on our personal habits and how they impact our planet. Read one to find out how you can celebrate Earth day, every day.


Our Choices Matter

Shop Small, Buy Handmade

There's a lot of power in where we choose to spend our money. One small purchase can make a big difference. When you buy from an independent maker, you know exactly who made it. You're supporting an individual, helping them to pay back into the community and keeping their business alive.

Shopping small is a more sustainable choice. But if you don't need to shop, there are plenty of ways you can support small businesses–without buying anything at all! Our favourite way to show our support of fellow makers is to leave a review to help boost their visibility online.
