Kinda bad at choosing gifts? Don’t worry – our ultimate eco friendly Father’s Day gift guide is here to help!
Ladies and gentlemen, your attention please – this is a Public Service Announcement. It is my official duty to remind you that Fathers Day is coming up. I’m giving you more than a week’s notice, so it’s enough time to think of something good (at least something better than a multipack of socks, as I myself am guilty of).
While he may protest that he doesn’t need anything, the truth is everyone loves a thoughtful gift, no matter what day of the year it is. And doesn’t your dad deserve it? (I know mine, pictured with me below, does!)
Our Ultimate Eco Friendly Fathers Day Gift Guide has all the classic staples of any decent eco friendly Father’s Day gift guide, but with one significant difference: these products are noteworthy for their sustainability. Let the hurried gift hunt commence!
The Ultimate Eco Friendly Fathers Day Gift Guide
1. Frank & Oak Shirts
A piece of clothing is always a good idea. And dads who are classic yet hip will love Frank & Oak Shirts! They can be long or short sleeved, and come in various colours. Ethically made from natural materials, they’re fit for practically any occasion. This is one of those eco friendly Father’s Day gifts that you just can’t go wrong with!

2. Recycled Hockey Stick Grilling Set
What happens when old hockey sticks need to die? They get reincarnated as grilling tools! I absolutely love this idea, and your sports-loving, BBQ genius of a dad will, too. Every set is 100% unique, given the recycled nature of the actual hockey sticks used as the handles for these tools.
The Recycled Hockey Stick Grilling Set is good for all seasons.

3. A Knife Sharpener
If you know of newlyweds who take cooking seriously, they will greatly appreciate this Tormek knife sharpener.
Any good cook knows that you need sharp utensils for precision slicing and dicing. And this Torket sharpener will keep all kinds of knives running smoothly every time.
Why is this gift sustainable? Well, because it means the couple will have one set of knives for their whole lives.
Many conventional methods don’t fully sharpen the knife, but instead realign a folded edge or hone parts of the edge. This can work as maintenance, but soon you’ll notice that you’re not getting the same sharpness as before. You then need to replace your knife set.
However, this machine sharpens the entire bevel of the knife, not just the outer edge, with minimal metal removal. The result is professional sharpness in a matter of minutes, and a knife set that lasts forever.
The best eco friendly father’s day gift for: Serious chefs!

But that’s not all! Each purchase means a share of the profits from each phone case directly supports the Malala Fund, which helps to educate girls in developing countries.
