    Go green and add compost bins, reusable mop pads, and more sustainable goods to your living space.

    1. A countertop garden so you can grow fresh herbs at home. It has LED lights and a control panel that reminds you when to add water or feed your plant babies. Yes, you *can* get fresh basil, parsley, and thyme without going to the grocery store.

    2. An affordable bidet attachment that'll effectively clean your bum without using a mountain of toilet paper. One other benefit of this device? You won't have to worry so much about clogging your toilet. 🙌

    3. A compost bin because you need a leak-resistant and odor-free spot for your fruit and veggie scraps. Its activated-charcoal filter helps prevent banana peels and coffee grounds from stinking up your kitchen.

    4. Biodegradable laundry detergent so you can wash your clothes and sheets *and* minimize your carbon footprint. This formula is free from bleach, phosphates, and laureth sulfates and it comes in a compostable/recyclable container.
