About Us
Appletree and Avalon ® champions British manufacture & is the first to exclusively sell 100% UK made Ethical Essentials, Homeware & Gifts.

We’re different from other companies because we don’t just support UK brands, we actively spend a lot of time ensuring that we source & partner with suppliers who solely manufacture in the U.K, use as many British ingredients or components as possible & who follow our ethos.
We test & validate everything we sell before stocking it, so that we can ensure that our customers only receive quality, honest products that are truly value for money & we maintain zero waste by reusing all packaging that comes into us. We do not use single use plastic & actively avoid products that aren’t palm oil free (even RSPO).
We are a certified member of Make it British giving us a credible link with other likeminded businesses who pride themselves on giving back to the economy & maintaining a low carbon footprint, just as we do
On top of this, every purchase with Appletree and Avalon ® allows us to contribute to wildlife & habitat conservation with The World Land Trust

Our CHOSEN CHARITY PARTNER
We all know & are deeply saddened by the global impacts and issues we all face across the planet and wholeheartedly support all efforts to improve, protect or nurture our diverse ecosystems
After much consideration, we have decided to dedicate our time and contribute towards The World Land Trust.
As well as continuing our own efforts to support Wildlife within Britain, we felt we also needed to urgently respond to the devastation across the globe & help to protect our Planet’s biodiversity’s in a broader way.
Every year, we’ve donated a fixed annual amount from your purchases at Appletree and Avalon ® to The World Land Trust.
So far, this has enabled us to support the purchase & protection of critically threatened habitat as well as contributing to the plantation of significantly more trees across the world, because of you.
We actively put the Planet before profit, which is one of the reasons each £ spent with us, really does count.
The current Patrons are Sir David Attenborough, Chris Packham, Steve Backshall & David Gower.
“Nature urgently needs our help to recover. And it can be done.” – Sir David Attenborough
