Marley’s Monsters
Marley’s Monsters sells handmade fabric and wood goods such as un-paper towels, bowl covers, washable sponges, and some super cute snack bags.
And as the name of the store surely suggests, they also specialize in “baby and mama” essentials, including cloth wipes, which are available in an array of colors.
Everything is unique, eco-friendly and — perhaps more importantly — you’ll find lots of reusable stuff here.
And in case you were curious, Sarah is Marley and Fox’s mom, and she founded the store after deciding she wanted to combine her twin passions of making stuff with helping others reduce their plastic usage.
What else? Gift cards are available.
Online shopping? Yep.
Location: 550 Pearl St Suite 170, Eugene, OR 97401

You can buy online and choose either delivery or pick-up, and you can also donate your plastic bottles, which will then be reused (they’ll clean, refill, and donate them).
What else? Simple Sundries is a proper community-driven project that regularly hosts events, including recycling events.
