Meet Bernie.

Bernie is a q***r artist, art educator, and the creative entrepreneur behind Bernie & Zuzu; a brand as bold and full of life as its name suggests..

We’re so excited to welcome Bernie into the Green Life family with our newest featured artist collaboration. The Bernie & Zuzu x Green Life Trading Co. collection brings three vibrant original designs to our functional, sustainable Swedish Dishcloths; because your countertops deserve a little art, too.

Swedish Dishcloths are one of our favorite zero-waste swaps: each one replaces up to 17 rolls of paper towels, is made from plant cellulose and cotton, and 100% at home compostable at the end of its life. Now they come in Bernie’s signature bold, bright style.

There’s a common idea that going green means giving up cleaning power. And honestly, that hasn’t been true for a while. Our brands do the same jobs as the brands you already know, just with simpler ingredients and a lighter footprint. Here’s how some of our favorites compare to the classics you probably already have under the sink.

Last week, I set out to buy my mom a travel mug she could take to work. Standing in the middle of the aisle, surrounded by a colorful array of coffee mugs, two options caught my eye: one made from recycled plastic, the other from silicone. Both were marketed as eco-friendly (right up my alley!), but I found myself wondering: which is actually better for the planet, and for our health? With so many products labeled “sustainable,” it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. But are there significant advantages to choosing recycled plastic versus silicone?
