Empty Jars - Refill & Zero Waste Shop

24/10/2026

🌿 A little reintroduction for those who are new here! 💚

It’s been a while since we’ve introduced ourselves, so we thought it was about time!

We’re Maddie and Marino, the couple behind Empty Jars, your independent zero-waste refill shop in Evesham. 👋

We’re passionate about living more sustainably, eating well, and making small everyday changes that can have a positive impact.

When we first opened Empty Jars, we hoped to create more than just a shop. We wanted to offer a place where people could shop a little differently, discover lovely products, reduce unnecessary packaging and feel part of a community that cares about the environment.

And what a journey it’s been! ❤️

Over the past four and a half years, we’ve met so many wonderful people, had countless lovely conversations, shared plenty of laughs and created memories that we’ll always treasure. Whether you’ve been with us since day one or have only recently discovered us, we’re genuinely grateful to have you as part of our little Empty Jars community.

And here’s something we can all be proud of: together, you’ve helped us prevent almost 92,000 pieces of packaging from being used! 🤯💚 Every refill, every reusable bottle and every small choice has made a difference. That number belongs to all of you!

At Empty Jars, you’ll find everything from refillable household and personal care essentials to organic goodies and delicious organic coffee. ☕🌱 We’re always looking for ways to help make sustainable living easier, more accessible and, most importantly, enjoyable.

Running a small independent business isn’t always easy, but seeing familiar faces walk through the door, meeting new customers and knowing that our little shop is making a difference makes it all worthwhile.

So, whether you’re a regular, a recent visitor or someone who’s been meaning to pop in, thank you for being here and supporting our little dream. 🫶

Now we’d love to hear from you! 💬 Tell us in the comments: How long have you been part of the Empty Jars community, and what’s your favourite thing about the shop?

With love and gratitude,

Maddie & Marino 💚

♻️ WHY PAY MORE FOR A BRAND NAME?

Ecover is now owned by SC Johnson, a multinational household-products company.

They’ve also reduced bottles from 1.5L to 1.43L while keeping the same shelf price — meaning you’re paying more per litre.

Here’s how their standard supermarket prices compare with our refills that are actually kind to the environment and to your body!

🧺 Laundry Liquid
Ecover: 73p / 100g
SESI refill: 40p / 100g

🫧 Washing-Up Liquid
Ecover: 45p / 100g
SESI refill: 38p / 100g

🌸 Fabric Softener
Ecover: 42p / 100g
SESI refill: 35p / 100g

🍽️ Dishwasher Tablets
Ecover: £2.26 / 100g
Eco Leaf: £1.13 / 100g

♻️ Refill. Reuse. Reduce.

📍 Empty Jars, Evesham 💚

Bring in your empty Ecover bottles — or bottles from any other brand — and refill them to save money! ♻️

💚 WHY DOES SHOPPING LOCAL MATTER?

When you spend £10 at a huge company like Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Amazon or Holland & Barrett etc, your money becomes part of a massive corporate business, with profits ultimately benefiting shareholders and investors — including international investment groups.

When you spend that same £10 with a small independent business, much more of it stays connected to real people and the local community.

It helps pay local wages, rent, bills, local suppliers and keeps independent businesses going.

So next time you have a choice:

Spend local. Support local. Keep your money closer to home. 💚

Every pound really does make a difference.

📣 Let’s talk Faith in Nature 📣

Did you know that if you refill your bottle/container instead of buying a new bottle you save money?

We’ve compared our Faith in Nature refill price with prices from big supermarkets and Faith in Nature’s own website — and our refills work out cheaper! 💚

🌿 Faith in Nature at Empty Jars
£1.44 for 100g

Here’s how our price compares with buying a new bottle:

✨Empty Jars Faith in Nature refill: £1.44 for 100g

Sainsbury’s Faith in Nature products from £1.83 for 100g

Waitrose Faith in Nature products in between £ 1.75 and £2.10 for 100g

Faith in Nature own website: in between £1.75 and £2.12 for 100g

Holland & Barrett Faith in Nature products in between £1.62 and £1.99 for 100g

By refilling, you’re not only saving money, but also reusing the bottle you already have and helping to reduce packaging waste.

♻️ Bring your empty bottle, fill it with as much or as little as you need, and pay only for what you get.

Better for your pocket. Better for reducing packaging. Better for reusing what you already have.

Pop in and refill your Faith in Nature shampoo, conditioner, body wash or body lotion at Empty Jars 🌿

Evesham's very own zero waste shop.
Fill up on food, toiletries, cleaning supplies and more.

We’re still open 📣

Over the past few weeks and months, we’ve heard a few people say, “Oh, sorry you’re closing.”

We’re not sure where that came from, as we’ve never said that we’re closing! 😅

Empty Jars is still open and we’re here as usual. Please keep supporting us, popping in, refilling your jars, picking up your favorite products and enjoying a coffee with us.

We really appreciate your support and hope to see you soon! 💚
