Welcome to the new web storefront of the Rachel Carson Homestead!

We appreciate your business. Every purchase helps support our work to promote scientist and author Rachel Carson's environmental ethic:

  • Live in harmony with nature
  • Preserve and learn from natural places
  • Minimize the impact of man-made chemicals on natural systems of the world
  • Consider the implications of human actions on the global web of life

We never stop searching for earth-friendly, sustainable products that embody Carson's environmental ethic.

The Rachel Carson Homestead Association has conducted further investigation into the safety of SIGG® bottles' lining. We have concluded (as have Treehugger and SNEWS ) that SIGG has not been completely open about its lining. Therefore, we are working to have all our stock replaced with lining-free SIGG bottles and will switch any RCH SIGG bottles out once we have the new stock in.
