Stainless Steel
Wow! Record breaking temperatures in Victoria this week! A heatwave right across Canada!
Here are three products in our stainless steel collection to help you keep your cool, save you money, and keep you both hydrated and healthy.
(By the way, did you stop by and take our Greater Victoria Water Watch Coalition taste test last week? Good old Victoria tap water beat out bottled by a wide margin!)
Shiri is holding two of the great variety of stainless steel water bottles to be found in-store at The Good Planet Company. Alain is showing off our brand new stainless steel popsicle molds and Brianna is displaying the same kind of indestructible stainless steel ice cube tray that grandma used to use.
We also have a great range of stainless steel containers, lunch kits, straws, compost buckets and more to choose from on-line and in-store.
Why Is Stainless Steel So Eco Friendly?
What do these great Good Planet Company products have in common? They’re made of 100% high grade stainless steel. Completely safe for you and your family to drink from (No BPA or phthalates, they last forever, but are completely recyclable if you get tired of them after 1oo0 years!

At last! It’s summertime in Victoria!
One of the highlights of the summer for The Good Planet Company as well as many other locally owned environmentally aware businesses is the annual Organic Islands Festival, talking place this coming weekend (July 10th and 11th) at the beautiful 100-acre Glendale Gardens conservation park.
This solar powered, zero-waste outdoor festival features music, entertainment and more than 150 exhibitors from across Vancouver Island. It’s our chance to reconnect with our customers, soak up some sun, and have a fun filled weekend. We hope you’ll drop by our booth in The Green Collective area of the festival.
If you want to buy your ticket in advance, they’re available right here at The Good Planet Company for $10 (adults) or $7.50 (senior/youth). See you at the weekend!

Happy Earth Day from The Good Planet Company! Forty years after the very first Earth Day, our planet is under increasing stress from the demands of its resident 6.8 billion human beings.
Our customers frequently ask us exactly how does one “save the planet?” It’s so easy to become overwhelmed by the challenges we face from climate change, air and water pollution, habitat destruction and species losses. These issues, coupled with the baffling political processes in place to fix them, can make even the most optimistic of us wring our hands in frustration.
We think the best solution is to start out by saving ourselves, our families and our communities. Continue to reduce, reuse and recycle, to respect the cycle of nature, to live consciously, to act mindfully, to support grassroots organizations and to live well with less.
People power is strong! Let your friends and neighbours know that a Green life is a good life. As Mother Theresa once said, “Do not wait for leaders. Do it alone, person to person”
Happy Earth Day! Enjoy!
