The Common Good 394 Burwood Road, Hawthorn, Victoria 3122

Welcome to The Common Good, a local institution located at Hawthorn, Burwood Road, 394 in Australia. Since 2013, we have been owned by locals who are dedicated to ethical and fair trade practices in the wholefood industry.

At The Common Good, we believe that giving the gift of beautiful food and household wares is a meaningful and waste-free way to show gratitude, well wishes, and love to others. Whether you need a corporate hamper, birthday gift, care package, new parent bundle, or just a gesture of kindness, we are experienced in creating the perfect package for you.

Our individually curated gift boxes, wooden crates filled with seasonal produce and local goods, and beautiful basket hampers are brimming with artisanal delights from near and far. Get in touch with us and let us help you create a thoughtful and unique gift.

We are excited to introduce our latest addition to our shelves - beautiful, provenance-filled cordials from Natasha's home in Daylesford. Handmade with seasonal and locally grown produce, these cordials are the perfect accompaniment to ice cream, yogurt, prosecco, sparkling water, baking, and more. Let your creativity run wild with these versatile cordials.

For almost the entire duration of our store's existence, we have partnered with Emma and Damien, who have built a beautiful, sustainable, and ethical brand of teas. We stock their full range and are inspired by their business ethics.

Our focus has shifted to pre-packed bulk goods, including organic and often biodynamic (Demeter certified) products. We believe this is an environmentally responsible way for people to purchase staples, as our packaging is reusable, recyclable, and compostable. By purchasing directly from producers in large volumes, we are able to offer more affordable prices to our customers while minimizing the supply chain. It's just us between the maker and the consumer.

Owning The Common Good store has been a long journey for us - a husband, wife, and two young team members. We juggle going to markets, dealing with growers, farmers, and suppliers, and getting to know the people and companies behind the products we sell. Our goal is to reintroduce people to shopping locally, eating organically and sustainably, and fostering a conversation about ethical living and integrity-based business.

This is our first business, built on a passion for mainstreaming ethical consumption and empowering people to make conscious decisions. In our store, you won't find yourself mindlessly filling your cart because three is cheaper than two when you only need one. We believe in building a business by giving generously and recognizing that the most important thing you can do for your children is feed them well, every single time.

We are grateful that people have many options for where they spend their money, and we appreciate each time someone chooses our store. Visit The Common Good and experience the difference of a store dedicated to ethical, sustainable, and conscious living.
