Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best sustainable holiday gifts in Canada?

Top sustainable gift ideas include products from Tentree, Attitude gift sets, Province Apothecary skincare, local artisan goods from farmers markets, experience gifts (National Park passes, local tours), and subscription boxes from Canadian sustainable brands. Consider gifts that support 1% for the Planet or B Corp certified companies.

When should I start shopping for sustainable holiday gifts in Canada?

Start shopping by early November to avoid shipping delays and secure popular items. Many Canadian sustainable brands offer pre-order specials in October. Black Friday/Cyber Monday (late November) often features deals from eco-conscious brands. Shopping early also reduces rush shipping carbon footprint.

Where can I buy sustainable gifts in Canada?

Shop sustainable gifts at Well.ca, The Detox Market, Simons (eco collections), MEC for outdoor gear, and local zero-waste stores in major cities. Farmers markets feature local artisans. Online marketplaces like Etsy Canada and Made in Canada Gift also curate sustainable Canadian makers.

How do I wrap gifts sustainably?

Use furoshiki (fabric wrapping), newspaper, brown kraft paper, or reusable gift bags. Avoid glittery or laminated paper (not recyclable). Use natural twine instead of ribbon. Consider giving gifts in reusable containers like mason jars or cloth bags that become part of the gift.
