For those that know me, I fall short of being the environmentalist I probably need to be. I drive a gas car. I don't bike as often as I should, and it took me a long time to embrace recycling. But things are looking up for me and here's one reason why. Refill Goodness.
Their motto is "sustainability made simple" and to be honest,
they make it simple. I ventured over the bridge to speak with
co-owner Jenny Vedrani about this simple concept of refilling
your old containers. We refill our gas and propane tanks, so why
not our shampoos, dish detergents and toothpastes--yes
toothpastes!
When you visit their shop on Kent Island (or at the Crofton
Farmer's Market and other locations) you will see their commitment
to sustainability and locally sourcing as. much as possible--down
to the art on the walls!
My takeaway from this conversation...it doesn't take much and
little steps are still good steps. As for me, I am diggin' my
refillable and sustainable toothpaste and reusable dish rag!
And really, who can't love a business that came to fruition at a
Phish concert?
Have a listen!
