Review from Chantal I.
Vancouver, BC
The gentlemen that own this business are fabulous. I purchased an organic cotton and natural rubber queen mattress from them two years ago, along with an organic wool duvet and pillows. They were so helpful and the service was amazing.
I had been talking with another company in Vancouver that sold a similar product, and chose The Good Planet because of the service. (As an aside, the Vancouver company was completely atrocious).
The bed is amazing, the best bed I've owned, and worth every penny. They let me put the bed on layaway, and because of that it let me convince the person sleeping on the other side of the bed, that we really did need to buy the complete natural, toxin free package.
He's just upgraded to a natural shredded rubber pillow, and loves it as well. When you buy a bed, they offer 10% off all the linens and pillows for any future purchases. They also allowed my brother-in-law to return a shredded rubber pillow that had seemed to not hold up, I brought it in the store for an exchange when buying the new pillow, no trouble at all.
Since moving and expanding from the old location, they've brought in even more products. Their buying practices, and just their taste, is awesome. This is absolutely the best store to buy gifts, for yourself, or anyone. I can't believe it's not on Yelp yet, but I'm very stoked to be the first to review.
You'll find everything from toxin free kid toys, clothes, home composting kits, Level Ground Coffee, natural cleaning supplies, fair trade baskets, unique sustainable gifts, tons of great kitchen options, tools, towels, dishes, it's a never ending journey of fabulous when you explore this beautiful shop.
So, if you are like me, and prefer to support all things eco, or if you're just curious and need some convincing that eco doesn't always mean patchouli, head to The Good Planet, one of the best shops I've ever been to.

History
Established in 2001
There are no messages of environmental doom and gloom here. The Good Planet Company celebrates the planet and all that Mother Earth has to offer.
The Good Planet Company was founded by Alain St.Onge and Ian Cromack, who, in 2001, decided to quit their jobs and put their reputations as Treehuggers, Granola Crunchers and wide eyed optimists to good use by creating a values-led business, featuring an exciting range of earth-friendly, organic products.
The company continues to evolve and innovate, moving in 2008 to a larger, brighter, main street location, ensuring that it's product lines are continually refreshed and improved. With seven people now on staff, the entire Good Planet team invites you to drop by the store in beautiful downtown Victoria for a warm welcome, a cup of tea and a browse.
