Our story…
YES! was founded by two Arlington mommas determined to do our part in supporting an environmental revolution. We help you reduce waste by selling eco-friendly alternatives
for everyday essentials! Think general store, but without all the packaging.
We all need dish soap, sponges, shampoo, and laundry detergent…
but finding these products without adding harmful chemicals to our homes and
more single-use plastic to the trash stream is frustratingly difficult.
It’s time to change that!
YES! is Your Eco Source for bulk refills, self-care, home goods, and gifts.
At its core, the goal of YES! is to make sustainable living more accessible and convenient.
We aim to do this through hope, education, and realistic conversations. We know making
these changes takes time and patience, and we’re here to help you problem-solve.
If you’re here, we suspect you are also sick of all the waste that
come with daily living. Maybe you’re at the start of your plastic-reducing journey, or
perhaps your lifestyle already aligns closely with your lowering-your-trash-output goals.
Regardless, we bet there’s something here for you! Thank you for taking the time
to browse and for supporting this little dream of ours – it means so much to us.
Our products…
When curating our products, YES! considers the following to help us determine what to carry:
What it’s made of
Whom it’s made by
Where it’s made
Where it ships from
What it’s packaged in
Its end-of-life disposal
We are committed to stocking plastic-free products that come in limited packaging. We prioritize small businesses that are Black-, women- or LGBTQ-owned, and that treat their employees with respect and pay them fairly. Whenever possible, we source products from the US, as local as possible to Massachusetts. We seek products that are responsibly made, with minimal to no packaging, and that contain safe, earth-friendly components.
