Plantish is founded on zero waste, plastic-free & vegan principles. We desire to create a community while sharing inter-generational wisdom and a passion for plant-based products.

The name comes from a state of being patient with slow growth, inspired by plants.

Watching the process of seed transforming to a plant has made me reflect deeply on the process of slow growth, being patient with that mindset and how that can be carried over to sustainable practices in our lifestyles. Although I know we must work powerfully and effectively collectively to reduce plastic waste, we also need to be patient and gentle with one another and our own existence.

Zero Waste is no new concept, it has been around for generations manifesting in various ways in different societies. When I was a kid living in a small village, I witnessed how elders like my grandma lived a frugal and economically responsible life, without the use of plastic. Individuals in smaller villages turn to nature in searching for supplies to work with and lead more sustainable, low-waste lives because of it. I recall the natural loofah sponge my grandma used for dishwashing and showering, which prompted me to research natural alternatives to the man-made loofah.

As I found that more people were also having difficulties finding zero waste products, I decided to create a platform to make plant-based products available to more and to pass down the wisdom that previous generations shared with us, and products that Plantish has experience with and stands behind.

Definitely Solid Dish Soap! I cannot describe the joy of finding the perfect formula when creating this product in my studio in Vancouver. There're days that I sweat or sulk over my workload, I would cook some comfort food then clean my kitchen with the soap and Zero Waste Cleaning Set. Nothing more soothing compares to food and a squeaky clean kitchen!
