It’s a BUY! - we like Thrive Market and think its worth the membership. As a B-corporation, it houses organic, sustainable pantry (and frozen food!) items with some home goods like TP and laundry/dishwasher detergent powder.

We’ll hit you with the bad now: it seems pricey. Membership is $59.95/year and prices look expensive. That said, it is a delivery service that charges nothing for delivery >$49. We compare to Whole Foods in this review, and we think over the course of the year, you can get out ahead by just switching the dishwasher detergent to Thrive Market (details below!).

For #4 user and/or no access to compost and space savers: Grove Collaborative Reusable Organic Cotton Coffee Filters are a BUY. It is the more affordable option.
For our basket filter users: basket filters are a touch cheaper. For our composters, given that you may have to use an organic cotton filter >450x, they may not make sense unless we know that they can last you a very, very long time.

Pubic Goods has incredibly clean packaging and an admirable mission of making sustainable and earth friendly products available on one site. Unfortunately, we barely break even when considering the cost of membership against the products we tried and would actually continue to order.

We like ingredients we can pronounce - and Pubic Goods does a great job in making sure their products have only simple, organic ingredients. We love some of their products, but unfortunately some miss the mark.

Public Goods Peanut butter: difficult to stir and spread, encased in plastic, smells burnt, and the kicker: it’s the most expensive on our list. NO.
Public Goods Organic Blueberry Jam: Eh. It’s fine.

We love Public Goods Spicy Ramen. No shame here with the instant stuff.

While the tea smelled and tasted great, we’re frankly upset that this was marketed as ‘zero-waste’

After trying Davidson’s Hibiscus tea, we were pleased to discover that loose leaf teas can be easy and tasty

We love using beeswax food wraps to replace plastic wrap. We tried two popular brands on Amazon, Bambeez and Bee’s Wrap for 30 days…

Bee’s Wrap beeswax food wraps are the leader in zero-waste food wraps—a great way to cut out plastic wrap out of your kitchen!
