Hello, my name is Rosalyn, I am the founder of OAT & OCHRE. As a busy mom of four, I was determined to dress my family in sustainable fashion but found the online shopping landscape overwhelming and confusing. The prevalence of greenwashing and lack of transparency by many brands left me feeling frustrated. I was inspired to make a difference and embarked on a mission to create a platform that would provide a curated selection of high-quality, organic, and ethically-made clothing for families like mine.
My desire to be a catalyst for change, I founded OAT & OCHRE with the vision of showcasing brands that are truly transforming the fashion industry. I bring together collections of timeless wardrobe basics that not only met my stringent criteria for sustainability but also embody a minimalist aesthetic. For myself, it is essential to be part of a movement that leaves the Earth in a better state for future generations.

I love the selection of quality clothing they offer and the option of letter mail shipping when you're only purchasing one small item. This makes shipping much cheaper.
