Fin and Earth, Dalston

This is our team’s local zero waste store and the one I visit most often! At Fin and Earth I refill all my household cleaning products from washing up liquid to clothes conditioner and hand soap. They also have an extensive selection of zero waste, eco essentials from labels including Georganics and Tabitha Eve.

The owners take pride in keeping the store looking beautiful and tidy, and it is always a pleasure to visit. Fin and Earth have also recently launched a little sustainable coffee station at the front of the store which we highly recommending picking up if you visit, their oat lattes and cappuccinos are delicious!
