At Sarah Bertochi - Handmade it begins with the philosophy that we can make a difference.

We start by incorporating better materials such as all natural cotton and linen, and hand printing our designs using Eco-friendly water based inks.

We strive to reduce our environmental impact by making thoughtful decisions as they relate to our materials and construction processes. Our small accessories and bag linings are made using fabric remnants - a great means of reducing our waste. These choices reflect our core values - that however small, we have a responsibility to "do our part”

We understand that by embracing a slow, more sustainable approach, our methods may not reflect the least expensive nor fastest route in which to bring product to market however we believe it results in a better quality product overall.

“We place emphasis on the art of making and
we celebrate the skills required to do so”

Sustainability Initiatives

We are mindful about sourcing our raw materials as well as

how we construct our final product.

towards improving our environmental impact
