It’s almost time to celebrate dads! Sunday, June 16 is Father’s Day. Don’t be caught empty-handed! Stumped on what to get the dad in your life? Check out this list of the best (and most eco-friendly) father-pleasing gifts out there!
Reusable cutlery set
Is your dad always on-the-go? Then why not get him a bamboo cutlery set? Many come with a reusable straw, fork, spoon, knife, and a nifty carrying case. They’re great for traveling dads who often find themselves eating on airplanes.
We recommend Pureosophy’s sustainable, 100 percent bamboo cutlery set, which comes with a fork, knife, and spoon in a linen pouch.
If you don’t want to get him an entire set, why not start with a bamboo straw? Wholesome Culture’s ‘Be The Change – Bamboo Straw’ comes with a pouch, stainless steel cleaning brush, and two bamboo straws — in other words, one for him and one for you!
100 percent soy wax candles
You simply cannot go wrong by getting your old man a candle! Homesick Candles are made with 100 percent soy wax and emit nostalgic scents. Get your dad a candle with a scent that reminds him of a particular city or state that has a special place in his heart. Whether it’s where he grew up, or went to university, a Homesick Candle is sure to give your dad that warm nostalgic feeling.

Eco-friendly clothing
Your dad’s clothing can really make a difference thanks to Wholesome Culture’s organic and eco-friendly collection. Be sure to check out our super cozy ‘Help More Bees’ organic crew sweatshirt! It’s made with 100% organic cotton.
Solar-powered everything
Whether your dad is a camping fanatic or perpetually attached to his phone, there are plenty of solar-powered gadgets that will keep him (and the planet) happy! The options are seemingly endless:
- Backpacks
- Bicycle locks
- Phone chargers
- Grills
Our fave is Lifepack — this bag can harness enough power from the sun to charge your iPhone up to six times!

Plastic-free grooming kits and organic bath items
Get your dad into an eco-friendly grooming routine with plastic-free razors, soaps, conditioners, and body washes. There are vegan razor kits that come with metal razors (as opposed to disposable ones), organic bar soaps that aren’t wrapped in plastic, and more.
We love Peace With The Wild because their products are vegan and palm oil free — and they come in recyclable aluminum tins!
