Before we get started, let’s not forget about the gift wrapping. Did you know that most commercial wrapping paper is not recyclable? Luckily, there are alternatives. Read more about sustainable wrapping in my post titled ‘4 Sustainable Gift Wrap Ideas.’ Without further ado, here are 6 eco-friendly gift ideas for Father’s Day. 

1) Reusable Tumbler Is your dad a coffee lover like mine? Or perhaps he prefers tea? No matter his preference, keep his favorite drinks piping hot or ice cold in this durable and stylish reusable tumbler. This tumbler is rust free, corrosion resistant, and the lid is also shatter resistant. It’s also dishwasher friendly and comes with a reusable straw and straw cleaner! This is built to last tumbler comes in 9 different colors with my personal favorites being Green, Orange, Black, and Navy Blue. 

2) Vegan Cork Wallet This lightweight and compact wallet is perfect for dads who like a classic and minimalistic look. Cork is very sturdy and durable, which means it’ll last for many years to come. It also repels water and is very easy to clean. 

3) Shampoo, Conditioner, and Body Bar This multi-use bar is handmade in Canada with organic ingredients such as shea butter and coconut oil. This plastic-free bar can easily replace shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, which makes it perfect for saving space in the shower and for travels. One bar is equivalent to one 24 oz bottle, which makes this product super affordable and long lasting.  

4) Bamboo Cutlery Set Is your dad always on the go? If so, consider gifting him a reusable cutlery set. Whether he’s getting a quick lunch, going on a picnic, or camping this summer, help him reduce his plastic waste with these eco-friendly bamboo utensils. This comes in a set of 2, which means your dad can keep one in his lunch bag and the other in his car. (Or you can keep the other one for yourself!)

5) Plant a Tree There’s nothing more thoughtful than making a donation on someone else’s behalf. With One Tree Planted, you can help the planet by gifting a tree in your dad’s name. Your donation will help to reforest areas affected by environmental disasters, restore native biodiversity, and more.

Once the donation is made, you’ll both receive a personalized tree certificate and a custom e-card created by you and sent on your date of choice. You’ll also receive updates and be able to track the impact your tree(s) are having on the environment and community. 

6) Safety Razor Say goodbye to plastic disposable handles and cartridge packs. This safety razor comes with a reusable bamboo handle that has a comfortable grip and gives you perfect control and precision. Not only is this an environmentally friendly option, but safety razors are also known to reduce skin irritation, bumps, and ingrown hairs.
