About Ethos
Ethos is a low-waste living shop and refillery on Amah Mutsun Land in beautiful Capitola, California. We focus on curating refillable and reusable alternatives to disposables that help put an end to throwaway culture. Our work is rooted in our local community to encourage conscious consumerism that is fun, approachable and aligned with our ethos. Here’s to living out our low-waste ethos together! #liveyourethos
