Grassroots offers environmentally-friendly products that allow people to make positive choices for themselves, their communities and the Earth.

Grassroots offers environmentally-friendly products that allow people to make positive choices for themselves, their communities and the earth.

Until Grassroots opened its doors in Toronto in 1994, there were very few options for green product choices. Word of our unique products spread gradually, and our small green business now mindfully operates two stores in Toronto, as well as our online store.

The Green Screen

Behind every product sold at Grassroots is a story. Not only are these stories about our products and the environment, but they are stories about small, eco-friendly companies that we are proud to support.

Shop with confidence knowing that we have researched the products we carry and we can provide you with all the detailed product information to make an educated and compassionate choice.

Green Power. Both Grassroots stores are bullfrogpowered (100% green electricity retailer in Ontario that sources electricity exclusively from wind and low-impact water power producers). Find out more at www.bullfrogpower.com.
Carbon Neutral Shipping. Online shopping just got more eco-friendly! Grassroots offsets the carbon emissions for all our deliveries. Zerofootprint makes this possible. Read more about this process.
Packing Materials. For all of our online shipments, we either reuse packing materials from our suppliers or use recyclable/biodegradable materials.
