Discover the best plastic free gifts in this roundup of sustainable and eco-friendly products for friends, teachers, pets, and more. 

Best Plastic Free Gifts

Thank you to EarthHero for sponsoring this post. I may receive commissions from purchases made through affiliate links in this article. Full Disclosure

We all have a few of those friends – the ones who are ultra-concerned with saving the planet in all ways, big and small. It can be hard to know what to get them for gifts because let’s face it, so many products on the market are cheap, wasteful, and not planet-friendly at all. 

I like to suggest gifts that are plastic free because anytime we eliminate plastic we are reducing our reliance on fossil fuels and avoiding adding more plastic to the landfills.

Truthfully, we ALL should be reducing plastic in our lives – because those small eco-conscious decisions DO make a difference. So give these gifts to everyone you know! They are perfect for friends, teachers, neighbors, and anyone who helps out in your life.

Top Plastic Free Gifts

These eco-friendly gifts from Earth Hero all have one thing in common – they are all plastic free and as a result, they help to eliminate waste, while still being practical, useful, and thoughtful gifts that the recipient will love to use!

self care gift box

Self Care Gift Box

You really can’t go wrong with the gift of self care! This lovely wellness collection includes a non-toxic soy candle, herbal lotion bar, detoxifying bamboo charcoal soap bar, plant clay face mask, soothing bath salts, and an exfoliating agave fiber washcloth. All of the products are made with natural and organic ingredients and are sustainably wrapped in plastic-free packaging.

terracotta planter kit

Terracotta Planter Kit

A gift of greenery is always welcome, especially when it comes with a foolproof hydroponic system that allows the plant to get exactly the amount of water it needs. Choose from Aloe or Prickly Pear Cactus. Perfect for anyone who could use a low-maintenance houseplant to brighten up their home.

ceramic travel mug

Ceramic Travel Mug

Anytime you can skip the disposable coffee cups is a win for the planet. This ceramic travel mug is lead free of course and has a food-grade silicone lid. Plus, a ceramic mug is so much nicer to drink out of than paper! United by Blue removes 1 pound of trash from our waterways for every product purchased.

winter tea gift box

Winter Tea Gift Box

The chilly winter won’t seem so bad with this set of delicious herbal teas from Flying Bird Botanicals. This set includes four tins of unique tea blends: Throat Soothe, Quiet Cough, Peaceful Spirit, and Cold Comfort. The herbs are sourced from farmers in the Pacific Northwest and the teabags are made from corn starch and are free of microplastics.

stainless steel cup trio

Stainless Steel Cup Trio

Help someone go plastic-free in the kitchen when you give them this set of three reusable containers. The containers are made from durable, non-toxic stainless steel and the lids are made from food-safe silicone. Perfect for meal prep, storing leftovers or for packing a zero-waste lunch. Bonus: they are dishwasher, oven, and freezer safe too.

Pop out ice cubes whenever you need them with this handy silicone ice cube tray.

Plus it comes with a lid to keep the ice cubes fresh when you are not using them.

silcone baby plate

Silicone Baby Plate

So many baby products are made from plastic so it’s refreshing to find gifts for parents that are plastic-free. This non-toxic, silicone baby plate is divided into four sections to help separate and measure healthy food portions. A suction cup base keeps it stable to avoid the big messes that often come with new eaters.

natural rubber dog bone

Natural Rubber Dog Bone

Give a dog a (plastic-free) bone! Dogs love chewing on these natural rubber dog bones, especially when they are filled with treats. Dog parents love that they are safe, non-toxic, and 100% biodegradable at the end of their useful life.
