Living by the adage “You must be the change you want to see in the world”, entrepreneurs Angela Puzzolanti, Tracy Ritson and Joelle Spadacini Kelava created Planet Forward as a call to action of sorts; a play on the “pay it forward” concept that serves as the basis of their business model with the ultimate goal to ignite positive change and make a difference.

Planet Forward are purveyors of ethically made, sustainable products that are comparable to the best on the market — but more affordable.

All Planet Forward products promote the health and well being of people and the planet while upholding strict corporate responsibility standards.

Along with numerous internal green Initiatives, Planet Forward donates a percentage of all gross sales to 1% for the Planet in support of various environmental causes.

Other partners/memberships include:

Responsible Purchasing Network
Amnesty International
zerofootprint
Bullfrog Power
Green Enterprise Toronto
Recycling Council of Ontario
Kiva

We believe in walking the talk at every opportunity and advocating a new, accountable definition to the term “business as usual”.

REVIEW OF PRODUCTS

I was sent these complimentary samples of their line to review on the blog.

WHEE!

Eco-friendly goodies

Sustainable Stainless Steel Bottles: $13.99 – $19.99

The colour Mauve-a-lous was what I picked, and was lighter and slightly more grey in tone than the colour on the site (just an FYI).

The cap is secure, it is all stainless steel, and a great way to store water when you’re out for the day.

Plus, the steel won’t flavour the water the way plastic does.

This is only meant for water or colder liquids, as there isn’t a double chamber to cushion between the liquid and the steel.

(I do have another stainless steel cup, but it’s meant for very hot liquids like tea or hot chocolate)

See? BFFs.

They even cuddle together and match.

Planet Forward Black Scarf – $15.99

I actually don’t own a black scarf. At least, not as far as I know.

So having one made out of an organic cotton/spandex blend will be a nice hint of black in my wardrobe.

Snuggly. Very snuggly.

Reusable Bag – $2.99 to $9.99

The design is ADORABLE!

I put my black and white damask print pouch as an example to show you how roomy it is.

I am going to love using this.

It says: “A good planet is hard to find.”

It’s organic cotton, and feels incredibly sturdy.

I gave it a whirl when I went grocery shopping and it fit a LOT in there without feeling hard to carry.

Sustainable Lunch Bag $14.99

Now I can carry my delicate fruits and foods to work without wrapping them in bubble wrap (no .. really)!

This neoprene bag is soft, and great as a little lunch tote.

The items are exactly as described and a decent price.

I should note that you generally buy these things once, and re-use them over and over again.

Thanks Planet Forward!

Now for a whackload of prizes for one lucky person:

Why?

Because they’ve kindly offered to do a Starter Eco-Friendly Kit on my blog!

(How cool and generous is that?)

Here are around $104.44 worth of products someone is going to win!

1000ml stainless steel bottle (black) $20.99
750ml stainless steel bottle (green) $18.99
18oz stainless steel thermal travel mug (silver) $15.99
Neoprene Bottle Bag – Large $7.50
Urban Epicurean $14.99
A “Sustainable” design Organic Cotton Carry-All $9.99
An organic cotton scarf $15.99

What a great name for a company (Planet Forward). I'd love to do something more positive like this, if only as a side project, but everything seems to either be done or be too risky to implement.

Maybe the answer is to reinvent an everyday household object nobody has got to yet. (Coat hangers? )

Happy new year FB!

I love eco-friendly stuff. I already have a water bottle and a lunch bag and people ask me where I got them all the time. I find that often the reusable stuff works better and longer than the disposable items, too!

Wow! Those are amazing prizes! I would love to win, because I have a metal bottle and the cap is already breaking. I would love a higher quality substitute. I absolutely love using it though. Before that I bought water bottles and I always felt guilty about all that wasted plastic. I thought that a reusable bottle would leak, but it's been fabulous!

Reasons why I'd love to win an eco-friendly gift basket:

Since I've just relocated, ways I'm going to upgrade and change my life are on my mind. It's been hard living in suitcases, and not having reusable everything on hand has completely thrown me off course. Having reusable bottles and coffee cups to keep at work would be an AMAZING way to reduce my footprint since I could keep them there for my coffee, tea, and water consumption. Likewise, that lunch bag? I've been dying to get one of those, just so I can start bringing my lunch to work instead of eating out so much– a finance & health goal of mine for the year!

Another great giveaway!

There are so many reasons why I would love to win this gift pack, but the main one is for the water bottle. I recently left my Sigg water bottle on a plane and broke a nalgene (I know they're supposed to be indestructible), so I am water bottle-less. I've been try to remember to bring a glass to my office to drink from, but it just isn't as handy as a water bottle.

That is an awesome giveaway.

There's many reasons why I'd love the basket… Firstly, I still drink from used plastic bottles. I know I know it's bad… But I don't want to go out an BUY a $20 steel cup. So that would be great. And I love the neoprene lunch bag. I'm all about packing cute bento lunches. I'd love the scarf as oddly, I don't have a black scarf. I only have two reusable bags at home which is not enough because I live in Toronto where plastic bags are banned.

I would love to win because I am slowly becoming green; I've always wanted a stainless steel bottle but could never afford one. I have many reusable bags which I love, even if some find it a pain to carry around with them. I would love to become more green and some of these products would definitely help!

P.S. That scarf is too cute!

I’d love to win the gift basket especially because of the stainless steel bottles and travel mugs.

I haven’t been able to find water bottles that I like and are healthy, so have been toting a mug to work everyday. Winning this would definately help me out a lot since there’s not much variety in terms of water bottles where I live!

And the bag and scarf I would def gift it to my Mum since it’s something she’d use every day.

The lunch bag would also replace the plastic grocery bag that I’ve been shamelessly using instead to hold my lunch.

Here’s hoping! And thanks for this awesome giveaway!

I found your website by googling becoming minimalist. When I saw the steel water bottle I said to myself, hey I need that one. My REI bottle is too heavy to carry in my bag during the week and the plastic one my hubby bought me this week at E****** LEAKS! It leaked on my coupon and it leaked on the floor of my car! I need a water bottle that DOESN'T leak and is light weight and reusable. Like Planet Forward's bottle.

I'll be back to peruse your posts. Being a 'gentle' minimalist myself, and always looking for ways to motivate myself to declutter, I know I'll enjoy reading your blog.

I'm always looking for good water bottles to bring to class. When I use bottled water, I go through at least 2 bottles a day. I try to be green and use water bottles, but tap water is gross here (Florida), so I can't really refill halfway through the day. Last year, I bought 11 water bottles, thinking that I could fill up more than one before going to class… My roommate gave one away, and lost 5 others. And then one broke and leaked all over my bag, so now I'm kind of afraid to use the others, because I don't want that to happen again. Anyway. I'll definitely look into this company.

You know, I’d like to be on a design team to reinvent household objects.

Being someone who IS a minimalist (well.. pseudo perhaps), I find that just a little design change here and there would make a lot of products better.

Such as putting a grommet into a towel so you can hang it on a hook easily, rather than having it fall off all the time.

Or putting thick padding around potato mashers so my hand doesn’t cramp up and hurt when I am mashing them…

Or having dishes that can do double duty by having a curve in one side of the plate (a bowl attached to a plate) so you just use one dish rather than 2.

Plenty more in my head. I should write them all down and make millions.

I have already eliminated plastic water bottles from my life and I would like to take things a step further. It would be so much easier to set a good example for my friends, family and co-workers if I had the gear to show just how easy it is to live a little more green. Thank you!

I've already been subscribed to your posts via RSS (which is how I saw this post).

Thanks for offering this contest. I love reusable water bottles, and my downfalls are 1) that I tend to eventually lose them and 2) don't always have time to wash my own if I'm late for work, so have to do without. Plus I've been looking for a lunch bag solution, and this one seems pretty perfect.

What an amazing give away! I'm a recent reader (the last couple months) but first time commenter. I've enjoyed your blog so far!

Why do I want to win an eco-friendly gift basket?
1) I believe in doing my part. I have been using reusable water bottles since I was fifteen (of my own accord, not my parents prodding) and have since encouraged everyone around me to do the same. Many of them have picked up the habit as well (including professors at school!)
2) I appreciate doing something for the environment. Environmentally friendly goods are always a plus.
3) As a full-time student looking at med school and already suffering through student loan payments, something free and incredibly useful is wonderful!
4) I want an eco-friendly gift basket so that I can pass on the general message about working to save our environment. Really, we've all got to play a part. What better than supporting a company that is doing their part, plus some more?

And I'm having a buy-nothing January and February (except for your awesome budgeting spreadsheet, which I have been geeking out over for days now). And as for the scarf… The predicted high temperature for the next two days is ZERO degrees Fahrenheit. Aren't those good reasons to win?

Hello FB. I'm subscribed to your RSS. I would like to win because I could use a new lunch box and a water bottle. My current lunch box is a grimey old nasty thing, and I think there might be things growing in it by now. Also, I currently use a Cleveland Browns plastic cup to drink out of. I hate the Browns, and in fact, I hate football. Oh and I'm also buried under 2ft of snow – I need a water bottle to carry with me incase I get stranded on the roads and a scarf to keep me warm.

I also promise to comment more and lurk less.

I would love to win this. I'm a bagaholic…so would love the grocery bag and the lunch bag. I already have several stainless steel water carriers (don't want to use the plastic anymore…). The scarf would warm this cold little body (hey – it's 18 degrees F outside!). My husband could have the coffee holder – as his is cracked and he won't give it up! The neoprene bottle holder would be nice for taking water along while I'm on a walk (and it qualifies as a bag, so it feeds my addiction!). Thanks – love your blog and read it even without the giveaways!

I love the fact that you are giving away something that will not only benefit people (the reusable lunch bag, tote bag and water bottle) but it also benefits the earth by not using a brown paper bag or something else that is not sustainable, along with a tote bag that can be used for shopping or whatever without using yet another plastic bag, plus the water bottle can be refilled which is recycling at its best. The scarf just looks very warm and nice too.

Isn’t it against the frugality code to jostle for things one doesn’t truly need? My quest for frugality has taught me a few things – that quality really does pay, and to buy reusable things. The gifts are cool, though I’ve already accumulated some of the ones I need such as the stainless steel waterbottle (Cuisineart had a rocking Thanksgiving sale), canvas and denim bags for groceries (thriftstore). The lunchbag looks cute I admit , I’ve been using a small brown giftbag to carry my lunch to work. Not so trendy!

I'm a model/actress/dancer/teacher/college student, and my current set up for schlepping stuff is pretty sad. Because I tend to not bring lunch with me, having nothing to carry it in to keep it segregated from my books/teaching supplies/costumes etc. If I won this I'd actually start eating on the job. Which is healthy. And a much better thing to be doing as a role model to fellow students, and my own students!

I need a new water bottle, so winning an eco-friendly one here would be perfect for all the work-outs I have planned for February.

I also follow your blog on my RSS feed.

I would LOVE this gift! Im trying to get my hubby to take a lunch bag and all my suggestions thus far have been met with the "i married a hippie" type side eye. The lunch tote is fabulous, as is the rest of the stuff! And darrrlingggg… I've been following you for god knows how long! Great post! Great way to promote sustainable living! WooHoo!

I just discovered your blog and am lovin' it! I would like to win for the following reasons: a) been laid off for a really long time and cannot afford to purchase any of the items which are fabulous b) stainless steel re-useable H2O bottles rock, and are harder to find than one might think (I keep coming across aluminum ones, yuck) c) these are so stylish and look they would last d) my old lunch tote died on me

Hey aside from being ecologically friendly I could be a one man promotions team in the UKs 2nd largest city. Lame I know but hey, a man has to try.

All of those items are so cute! I've been collecting reusable bags and have found them great besides groceries. Pretty ones would be great. I recently threw out my old travel mugs and water bottles and definitely need a replacement.
