This was a great shop! I like that theres something like this in Milwaukee. The selection is pretty good and we purchased a few items! They do offer small paper bags for any loose spices, nuts, etc in case you forget to bring your own. The store is very clean and they have clean scoops for customers to use when selecting spices, etc. The cashier was fairly unfriendly and didnt interact much with us, she seemed annoyed.

I love this store! I just started my zero waste journey this year and was so happy to find this place. They have me rethinking everything in my house. They offer so many eco friendly products and dry goods. We love the spice selection. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Delivery is prompt. I also really appreciate the little kids play section for in-store shopping with my toddler, she did not want to leave 😄Another great gem in Milwaukee.

Received these items from Jenna the very next day after ordering. I love the fact that there are eco friendly and locally made items all in one place. I also love that there is a variety of household goods and food/drink items. The smell of this surface tonic is heaven! Honestly could be a perfume it’s that good. So excited to try more items in the future. I can’t wait until the store can officially open because I need to see what else they’ll get! The prices are super reasonable too. Much less than Whole Foods or Fresh Thyme and great to know that it’s helping local business.

We found this hidden gem. Lots of different products available. Went to buy dish washing liquid in my own jar and ended up finding five hard to find items.

Very cool concept. A bit pricey but if you want to help save this precious world its worth it. Great products too.

I have ordered online a couple of times now. My orders have been carefully and quickly delivered. I love that there is a local zero waste, and I enjoy the variety of products available. I highly recommend trying the toilet bowl bombs; theyve been a life changer.

I am 100% in love with this shop! I’ve been really struggling with lowering my waste as a consumer in Milwaukee. But this shop is amazing! They have such a wide variety of items and the owner is the kindest, warmest person! Highly encourage everyone to check it out!

Love this place! Bring your own jars and they will fill them with kitchen staples! Or if you forgot yours they have some to use. Also a great place for teas, soaps, oil, and other sustainable kitchen gadgets.

Great selection of dry goods, household necessities, and spices. Prices are super reasonable for a store offering mostly organics and local. We love how accessible it is whether youre new to zero-waste or just learning they are ready to answer any questions you may have. The stock pile of jars and paper bags are great if you end up needing more than what you may already have with you and then youre able to reuse them again and again :)Also love their online engagement answering questions on instagram and ability to order on online and pick up or have shipped to your home!

Really good place with so many plastic free alternatives! Paper wrapped toilet paper, metal razors, solid toothpaste in glass jars, and bulk food you can get in your own containers! Really cool.

I really really love the vibe of the store. Bought some reusable towels and napkins, and theyve been saving me money on purchasing each disposable item. Highly recommend visiting.

I’ve been here once. I’ll be here again. We need more zero-waste shops. The employees were super helpful in teaching me about the store and the options were exciting. I really appreciated one employee reminding me how light TVP (textured vegetable protein) weighed so I actually didn’t need a pound of it. Phew! I’d love to see them expand. Do yourself a favor and buy the vegan lavender earl grey lip balm. You won’t regret it. Also, try the kombucha!

Really loved the option to pick up my order close to my house. Great idea on the owners part to build a client base during the safe at home order. Have loved all of our products that we have tried so far and felt that everything was very reasonably priced for being organic (and many things local!). Will 100% be shopping at the store once it is fully opened and recommending to my friends.

Delightful store with a tremendous zero waste mission. A gem in an already bustling neighborhood with a kind, knowledgeable staff. Cant recommend this place enough and we look forward to our next visit.

I couldnt say anything bad about this place. From the owner to the employee to the goodies in the store, I love everything about it. I would definitely recommend to anyone who is interested in leaving this earth a little better than we found it!

Finally found a place for refills of olive oil, vinegar, and dish soap! Plus most other items that we buy in bulk whenever possible. The prices are on par with, or lower than, other grocery stores with bulk sections. It does feel good to see your garbage can remain fairly empty and to support a local family owned small business.

I cant wait for this story to open for real. It was super easy to get curbside pickup. I was able to get a brief glance inside the store, and it looks really cute. Looking forward to being able to stock up waste free!

One of the most incredible little local stores Ive been to in Wisconsin. Zero waste, organic, you can bring your own jars to fill up with their bulk items, and super welcoming and friendly. The owner is super informitve and has done a wonderful job with the store. Will definatly be comming back.
