@Kai-MSA I just received an email explaining the box ending and information for current subscriptions with payment refunds and such. I just wanted everyone that is active to check because mine was in the junk file.

I received that email too. One of my favorite boxes, so I’m sad to see it go.
I skipped the spring box which was ok because it had a repeat item and it wasn’t one of their best.

Thank you so much for posting about this and sharing this with everyone; in the morning I’ll see what else I can find out. Glad it seems they were direct and gave people details and a plan for refunds.
Appreciate it, thanks again.

They handled this really well. Serina has always been very open and communicative about the box and is really active on the Earthlove Facebook pages.
I thought this subscription was really great; I subbed since last summer so I was able to experience each season. I had already cancelled for this summer because I didn’t love the spring box, and it is kind of an expensive box (though I understand and appreciate why).
Lately, I didn’t like how the box was starting to lean in to herbal supplements and physical health. One box last year had a bottle of vitamins/supplements with a pretty high price point, so I felt they were a waste of an item because I already take medications and don’t want to mix with “natural” supplements without medical approval … then a similar thing happened this past month with an herbal tincture. Since a huge selling point of the box is that it’s eco-friendly, sending items like this that may not be useful to a lot of their subscribers is just creating/adding more WASTE (i.e., opposite of eco-friendly!). I think anything related to medical conditions/health should have been customizable/able to be swapped out.
I was looking forward to keeping an eye on spoilers and resubbing at some point, so I am sad to see it go for now. I’m glad Serina is taking time to regroup and is keeping the Earthlove brand active. All the best to her.
Welcome, @lncjc! I didn’t love the spring box either and it had motivated me to cancel for a while. What was the repeat item?

Hi Amy, Thank you for the welcome. I skipped also because I don’t have the extra funds. The repeat
item is the laundry strips. They are great - love them but just don’t need any now.
