The Fall Nontoxic Gift Guide
Anyone else loving that Fall is here? Leaves will be peaking soon here in CO with their vibrant yellow, there are pumpkins lining porches, and the smell of cinnamon and nutmeg is filling local coffee shops. We’re loving all of it! Here are our favorite nontoxic items for the Fall gift giving season.
10 Favorite Nontoxic Essentials
Rowe Casa Candle:
First on our list is a luxury nontoxic candle from Rowe Casa. Their pumpkin spice candle is back and made with organic beeswax, 100% therapeutic essential oils, and an organic hemp wick. It is free of the harmful chemicals found in most conventional candles including synthetic fragrance and petroleum. This coveted Fall candle has clove, cassia, nutmeg, and bergamot. Not only is this a beautiful gift for your own home, it is a perfect nontoxic gift for a friend or loved one as it compliments any decor and is safe for the occupant. It also comes in a refined black box for easy gift giving.
Quince cashmere sweaters:
Quince sweaters are a nontoxic clothing staple that’s ideal for gift gifting. Since cashmere is a natural fiber it is not treated with the same chemicals as conventional fabrics. This means that the wearer won’t absorb those toxicants when enjoying it. So not only is this nontoxic gift super cozy and soft but it’s safer-think less chemicals, heavy metals, and things such as PFAS. Quince conveniently offers staples for men, women, & children so there’s plenty to choose from.
Pendleton Wool Throw:
Now that the days are getting colder we may be sitting by a fire with our favorite beverage and book in hand. Adding a soft wool throw is a perfect companion for these times of leisure. The blankets at Pendleton are a timeless classic for creating a cozy, nontoxic home and their beautiful designs fit any home interior. Since they are made of wool you can rest easy knowing there are less chemicals and heavy metals added to the natural fiber. Here is a Fall favorite that any friend would be lucky to receive, the 5th Avenue Glacier Park Merino Throw.
Blue Tansy & Neroli Face Serum from Little Herbal Apothecary:
One of our favorite Fall personal care products for both men and women is this Blue Tansy & Neroli Face Serum from Little Herbal Apothecary. It’s one of those local finds we can’t get enough of! It’s a beautiful bright blue color, smells incredible, and hydrates the skin for dryer weather. There are no synthetic ingredients, it’s sourced from organic oils, and is a clean staple to gift to everyone you know. If you live locally they also offer a 15% discount for bottles you bring back in to be refilled.
Daily Harvest Bundles:
If you are that friend you loves giving the gift of health then Daily Harvest is a win-win. With their nutrient-dense prepared meals it’s super easy to get organic options sent to a friend to enjoy. Daily Harvest offers frozen harvest bowls, pastas, soups, smoothies, and more for a variety of dietary needs. Oh and did we mention they’re delicious!? Packed with superfoods and convenient for a busy lifestyle, Daily Harvest has plenty to choose from for a nontoxic gift.

Eden Botanicals Essential Oils:
To infuse our home with warmth this Fall while keeping human health in mind, Eden Botanicals offers a Fall Limited Edition set of essential oils perfect for any diffuser. This set of 3 is reminiscent of apple picking and all things autumn. Choosing essential oils over synthetic fragrance protects our health and that of our loved ones who will also enjoy better indoor air quality. If you’re looking to gift a single blend, Eden Botanicals also created sweater weather and cozy cabin. If you’re interested in learning more about nontoxic home fragrance check out our blog here.
Intellipure Compact Air Purifier:
As we tend to open our windows and doors less with cooler weather (or a longer fire season) it makes sense that our homes can’t ventilate and breathe quite as much. So gifting an air filter as we go into the winter months is a high impact nontoxic item. Our indoor air quality can often be 5 times more polluted than outdoor air so gifting an air filter makes a significant impact on human health. It may not be the luxury item that’s fun to shop for so people won’t gift it to themselves. Intellipure Compact Air Purifier in particular removes a high number of toxicants including: formaldehyde, pesticides, PFAS, microplastics, particles from wildfire smoke, as well as viruses, mold, and bacteria. In gifting such a game changer you will most definitely win the nontoxic gift giving friend award!
Beekeeper’s Naturals Bundles:
With cold season upon us it’s important to keep our immune systems strong and resilient. Beekeeper’s Naturals has nontoxic products small enough to throw into a bag or store in our car, that we can reach for as soon as we feel that scratchy throat or a bit run down. They have lozenges, throat sprays, superfood honey and more, all made with various bee ingredients like propolis and royal jelly. In gifting to a friend this Fall there are bundles and seasonal specials for adults and kids alike. To get you started check out their Soothing Defender’s Pack, or Propolis Throat Spray.
Lodge Cast Iron Dutch Oven:
In the Fall we start to crave more soups and stews, and these warming meals also fill the menus at our favorite restaurants. When making soups at home it’s safest to use nontoxic cookware so there aren’t chemicals and heavy metals leaching into our meals. Conventional cookware often contain things like PFAS, chromium, and even lead. So choosing a timeless nontoxic cookware option like cast iron ensures heirloom quality to last man years and also prioritizes health. There are certain cast iron pots and pans that have also been tested to be lead-free such as this Lodge Dutch Oven. Cast iron can often be passed down to the next generation so in giving such an item you’re also gifting something that is timeless.
Glass Ball Jars for Homemade Soup:
Last on our list is an almost free option that’s incredibly thoughtful-soup from scratch. If you’ve made a nourishing soup in your own kitchen you probably have a cup to spare. And in your cabinet you may already have a ball jar like this one, a spare ribbon, and a few extra minutes to place it on a friend’s porch. Gestures like this are remembered, promote health, and build the nontoxic collective.
We applaud your nontoxic gift giving! Small changes matter and these Fall nontoxic essentials truly support health. Thank you for being part of the change we wish to see in the marketplace and valuing the health of your loved ones.
