3 Sustainable Brands that Carry Seed Rakhi

Are you also looking for ways to make your rakhi gifting and celebration kinder to the planet? After all, with plastic rakhis we are polluting our soil and water- when there are much better ways out there. They may not be as flashy perhaps, but seed rakhi, upcycled rakhis, clay rakhis, and bamboo rakhis have started making innovative designs which are beautiful and in line with eco-ethics.

Seed rakhis are some of the best ways to support the planet as these serve as both a gift and a rakhi. Once the rakhi is tied, it can be planted into a houseplant that’ll serve as a reminder of your bond for a long time. For young kids, it is a good way to teach responsibility and the value of life, while also adding a touch of natural freshness to your space.

Interested? You’re in luck, for I’ve curated three brands that will deliver seed rakhis to your door.

Tamarind Chutney’s Custom Seed Rakhi

Tamarind Chutney is a fair trade and low waste brand that I’ve spoken about before. While it isn’t 100% vegan, the brand supports artisans and delivers customizable goods to your door alongside engaging in sustainable fashion advocacy. For seed rakhis, they’re open to customizing designs and seeds based on what you want- if you’re in Delhi, this is the brand to try for seed rakhis in my opinion. While travel emissions are a thing, Tamarind Chutney also ships internationally for those of us who haven’t worked out the local delivery system of where our siblings live. And they’ve pretty affordable shipping options for the same!

Phool co’s Trusted Seed Rakhis

A trusted name in the sustainability space, I’ve myself tried the Phool Co seed rakhis when I gifted one to my sister last year. They’re beautiful with vibrant designs and colours, made with fair trade ethos and delivered on time. This is a brand that’s also available on many online retailers, even if most quick commerce apps aren’t often in line with sustainable living. Yet, in a pinch, this is there.

Itokri’s Refreshing Rakhis

Known for their huge collection of handmade sustainable fabrics, Itokri is an amazing stop both for gifting and seed rakhis. Simple yet beautiful designs made by artisans is their MO, and they ship PAN India.

Are there other brands you trust to deliver plants and bonds of love to your siblings? Let me know in the comments and stay tuned for more storytelling and sustainability content.
