Not only is this stuff a great deal, but it smells great too. For the everyday laundry that seems constant this stuff is much cleaner (no messy caps to store or wash)!
It does need some help for heavier stains, but a small thing of stain remover-or even that bottle of Tide you are shifting away from- is way worth it. For space, for cost, for cleanliness.

Next time you are in the organic produce aisle, wait and watch how people interact with these gifts from nature.

Barebones | Hori Hori Ultimate
Originally designed to mimic the popular Japanese Garden Knife, hori hori roughly translates to “dig dig”. This hearty multi-purpose tool is built for versatility. Use it in your backyard, camping, bush-crafting, or anywhere you need it. Pound in tent stakes with the flat pommel base. Measure planting depth with the handy inch marks. Saw a branch or whittle kindling with the rust-resistant doubled edge.
Smooth and durable walnut seamlessly fit with the heat-tempered 6 ¾” pointed blade for a tool that just feels good in your hand. Added twine cutter doubles as a bottle opener, so you can enjoy a refreshing beverage of your choice after a hard day’s work.
I use the Hori Hori for just about everything as it relates to caring for my gardens. It digs weeds out efficiently. I use it to plant bulbs, lift rocks/stones out of the lawn, do edging along the rock beds, etc. My husband calls it the "Game of Thrones" knife. It's appropriate. This thing is built to last, is a good weight that feels good in your hands. When you use it you feel like you've "got the power" because you do! I am not surprised it keeps getting "sold out." I've bought a couple for friends and those people have bought them for their friends.
I love this garden tool!! It is great for weeding and planting. Have purchased several of them for presents to friends. In fact, I have purchased all of the Ecological Market’s gardening tools and love them all!!

Andrée Jardin Heritage Ash Wood Brush + Dustpan Set
A beautiful and functional set. The Ash Wood Handled Brush possesses a natural elegance and timelessness. And the Heritage French Black Sheet Metal Dustpan was made to last.
The tailor-made brush features a sustainably sourced ash wood handle and natural coconut fiber bristles. The thermally treated ash wood resists wear and water and has been fortified for use outdoors. The brush pairs perfectly with the dustpan. Handmade in France, like vintage dustpans of yesteryear.
Andrée Jardin has selected the best raw materials to create durable and efficient products, but always with a certain elegance. Brush and dustpan each possess a beautiful classic design and a braided fabric loop, which you can hang on display without hiding them in your cupboard. Handmade in France.
Since 1947 Andrée Jardin has created "de vrais balais qui durent" (translation "real brushes that last"). Andrée Jardin is reviving the craft of what were once called "Paris articles": hairbrushes, clothes brushes, house brushes, and brooms... Promising simplicity, quality, and durability, Andrée Jardin designs and manufactures essentials for the home that are equal parts useful, well-made, and beautiful.
The Ash wood handle has been modified by a treatment with high temperatures and steam. It can be recognized by its distinctive scent and brown caramel color. Thanks to this treatment, the wood has an excellent resistance to contact with water and humidity. HEIGHT: 14.5" WIDTH: 3.95" DEPTH: 3.95".
This Black Metal Dustpan is also handmade with French Ash wood from sustainably managed forests. The Ash wood is thermo-treated and has an excellent resistance to contact with water and humidity. Steel pan has black epoxy paint. 17" Long x 11" Wide x 4" Height
