Spring has officially sprung! Which means “spring cleaning” sessions are top of mind for many of us. Of course, equally as important as purging all those possessions that don’t “spark joy” and scrubbing down your place in celebration of the new season are the actual cleaning supplies you’re using. That’s where Grove Collaborative comes in. The online hub for sustainable home and cleaning products is devoted to vetting high-quality brands (including Grove’s in-house label) that are healthy for your family and for the environment.

To give the Grove goods a test-drive, we asked one of our favorite Bay Area-based mothers, Malika Pham, to hand-pick her favorite Grove products and then show us how she and her family put them to work in their household. While her little helpers scrubbed down counter tops and windows, the mother of 3 (Sayid, 6, Amira, 5, and Jamila, 4 months) caught us up on her motherhood journey and her transition to a healthier, non-toxic lifestyle after her son’s Autism diagnosis 5 years ago. Click the slides below to get a tour of Malika’s abode and to get inspired on all things clean and green!
