There is always something new happening at The Marketplace at Gervasi Vineyard Resort & Spa. To keep up-to-date, it’s best to visit the amazing gift shop often.
The Marketplace is always offering some of the latest and upscale lines of clothing, jewelry, home décor, a collection of artisan goods, exclusive wines, craft spirits, and much more. The latest line added at The Marketplace is the L’AVANT Collective line of high-performing, plant-based essentials.
The Marketplace Operations Manager, Sandy Fraedrich, says, “Everything about this brand is elevated from the sleek refillable bottles to the high-performing plant-based ingredients offering high-quality, eco-friendly refillable bottles.”
The Marketplace carries L’AVANT hand lotion, hand soap, dish soap, multi-purpose cleaners and laundry products in blushed bergamot and fresh linen.
Meet L’AVANT Collective
Along with the many attributes of the L’AVANT Collective lines come the following features:
- Elevated aesthetics with beautiful products deserves beautiful packages. L’AVANT designs its packaging to be refilled and uses a simple sophistication that will be at home in any decor.
- High Performance with non-toxic doesn’t mean sacrificing effectiveness. According to the company’s website, “the performance of the formulas rivals that of conventional cleaning products.”
- Collective, which means shared, is in line with what the company believes: an equitable approach to home care that engages every member of the household.
The cleaning products are designed to thoroughly and effectively clean your home or office, but L’AVANT Collective products are not EPA-registered disinfectants. Why not? The company says that because the EPA requires products to contain an EPA-registered pesticide to make claims of sanitizing, killing, or being “antibacterial,” the company can’t label them as such.
However, L’AVANT does include surfactants (soap) in its products that are effective in wiping away harmful germs, bacteria and viruses. It is recommended to use L’AVANT in conjunction with a registered antibacterial and disinfecting product as necessary to reduce the spread of viruses or bacteria.

L’AVANT posts on its website, “Plant-based ingredients work because they’re powerful. A plant can heal a broken stem, generate regrowth overnight and bloom into a beautiful flower to attract pollinators that are responsible for the food we eat. As formulated in our cleaning products, plants can be emulsifiers, foaming agents, moisturizers and be antibacterial and anti-inflammatory, and the scents derived from these plants have been known to uplift, sooth and energize.”
L’AVANT hired the best green chemist in the industry and tasked her with creating the highest performing, plant-based cleaning products on the market. L’AVANT Collective products are formulated without ingredients that can do harm to our bodies, our kids or our pets—and they’re environmentally friendly, too. The company only uses ingredients that are safer for people, pets and the planet. No phthalates, no parabens, no harmful fragrances.
