As the New Year approaches, we have a big change at our San Jose shop happening!

First of all, HUGE THANK YOU to all our loyal patrons who have kept us running for 6+ years!!

I opened The Source Zero, San Jose on February 14, 2019, through the amazing small business growth program in one of their adorable pop up spaces in San Pedro square. I had the pleasure of growing my brand concept there for 2.5 years, and since, have settled into our third location in our little corner shop in.

The store has ebbed and flowed throughout the moves and economy shifts, and loyal customers have shown their smiling faces to refill over and over, keeping us running!

Many of our regulars have had the pleasure of interacting with over the years.

Ruth has managed the storefront in San Jose for the last 2 years. She also worked at the shop our first year in business in 2019, and was an amazing and present support structure while I was figuring out how to run a small business in the heart of the silicon valley!

Ruth has been managing TSZ San Jose these past two years, as I personally moved to Colorado in summer of 2023. I have been spreading The Source Zero through Southern Wyoming and Northern Colorado, alongside our sister store out here
I have also focused back into the manufacturing of low waste body care, soaps, and much of what we sell at our locations. My original interest!

As the business grows, and I no longer reside in California, the natural progression is for Ruth to take over the San Jose storefront!

I am creating another Source Zero venture in Southern Wyoming called, if you want videos of me making yummy body care in my “laboratory”, or if you live out here on the Front Range, please follow that account to see where I will be popping up our shop and offering access to low waste goodies!

There are Big plans on the way to spread access to at home soap refilling, spearheaded by Stay tuned for the evolution of refilling!

Hello there!! 👋 it’s been a little while! Did you know we moved our storefront?! We have been decompressing from the move and been social media MIA!

We hopped the shop right over to the other food court in, so we didn’t go far, but we sure condensed the space!

We have some new products to offer you in our new space, so stay tuned for some introductory posts to new vendors and a bit more upkeep on our end to stay in touch with our amazing community!

Come visit us at The entrance to the market on the W St. John and N. Almaden doors of San Pedro square market, at 100 N Almaden ave.
