Platform aims to share stories that "shape a healthy, sustainable future — for us, and the home we share"
SAN FRANCISCO, February 06, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Grove Collaborative Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: GROV) ("Grove" or "the Company"), the world’s first plastic neutral retailer, a leading sustainable consumer products company, certified B Corporation, and Public Benefit Corporation, is excited to announce the launch of its new blog, Home Planet, a dynamic platform designed to be a trusted resource for actionable information on environmental and human health. This initiative underscores Grove’s commitment to building long-term relationships with customers by focusing on shared values and leveraging the Company’s expertise through meaningful content.
The Grove blog aims to provide valuable insights at the intersection of sustainability and personal well-being, captured in the tagline "Stories to shape a healthy, sustainable future — for us, and the home we share." Each post is crafted to empower readers with easy-to-digest, visually engaging information that inspires practical, purpose-driven actions. From navigating healthier product choices to learning about sustainable living strategies, the blog’s content will reflect Grove’s core values: prioritizing both human health and environmental sustainability without compromise. The blog intentionally avoids product lists, listicles, or links to its direct-to-consumer retail platform, focusing instead on encouraging customers to learn — not shop.
"Consumers today are looking for more than just products and are overwhelmed by the amount of choice in the marketplace—they want trusted partners who help them make informed decisions that align with their values. And we want to continue to be that partner," said Jeff Yurcisin, CEO of Grove Collaborative. "With this new platform, we’re deepening our role as a resource for credible, thoughtful guidance on sustainability and personal health, offering stories and insights that inspire action without the pressure of a sales pitch. Our blog is a reflection of our belief that customers deserve more than just a transactional experience — they deserve a partner who shares their values and empowers their choices."
Purpose of Home Planet
The Home Planet blog serves as a new channel for Grove to continue reinforcing credibility and sharing actionable information on environmental sustainability, human health, and accessible best practices. Rather than pushing for conversions, Grove’s blog is part of a broader strategy to nurture trust and loyalty over time. By focusing on education and inspiration, the platform builds genuine connections with readers who align with Grove’s values.
"A core tenet at Grove is putting the customer at the center of everything we do. When we engaged our customers to understand what they needed and scoured the internet for trusted resources to help them on their individual journeys, we found that a dedicated source was missing," said Jordan Savage, co-founder and VP of Brand & Creative at Grove. "Our brand is uniquely positioned to deliver this information and wants customers to not only understand but believe in our values as the foundation for long-lasting, trusted relationships."
A Blog Built on Core Tenets
Content on Home Planet will be focused on five categories: Sustainability 101, Reduce Plastic, Human Health, Quick Tips, and Community Stories. The majority of posts will be evergreen with some posts highlighting specific moments in time or milestones, with all content designed to be as engaging as it is educational by adhering to the following principles:
Value-Driven Insights: Every post prioritizes the customer’s needs, offering actionable takeaways that genuinely enhance their journey toward a healthier, more sustainable lifestyle.
