With a focus on toxin-free, low-waste, locally sourced products we are committed to supporting the environment, our local communities, and artisans. The choices we make and how we spend our money matters. So let’s do good together, and do it well.
Ellen Andrick
Founder
As a young child in the 1910s my grandfather picked dandelion greens and wild blueberries to sell to make money for food. He and his siblings screwed nuts onto bolts for take-home factory work that gave his widowed mother money to buy essentials. He graduated at the height of the Depression, dashed dreams of going to college, yet worked hard and found resourceful ways to earn an income, support his family, and tread lightly. These life experiences were formative for him and passed on through the generations.
As a child I spent many days with him meandering flea markets for durable, used hammers and screwdrivers, lawn chairs, golf clubs, and garden tools. Determined to give everything a second life, my grandfather saw value in everything and sought to refurbish, remake, or simply reuse what he already had. He was a savvy, sensible shopper and had an eye for quality-made products. One of my greatest gifts in life is being loved by him and learning the value of reducing, reusing, and repairing.
Couple this with my time in the Peace Corps, my stint as an events coordinator for a national non-profit, and my years as an educator, and I’ve landed here: knowing the impact others have on us, the impact we have on the earth, the incredible power of community, and that we can each do our part to be problem solvers. And when you add in a hefty pinch of science and dash of sensibility you land here: with a need to replenish.
And as a mom of young kiddos I can tell you with conviction, the children, the next generation, are watching us. What we do matters. The choices we make impact them. I founded replenish refillery with the lessons of my grandfather at the forefront of my mind and deep in my heart. At 88 years old he repaired a tear in a second floor awning by stitching it with dental floss. May we all have the same courage to solve problems creatively, mend what needs care, reuse what we have, and replenish as needed.

Maisie
Maisie joined Replenish in June 2024. She was born and raised in New Hampshire and loves to travel and meet new people. She is part of her high school’s Eco club and loves working with her peers to help out the environment and community. Next year she will be attending the University of New Hampshire with a focus in the humanities, but is looking forward to exploring sustainability and environmental opportunities there.
Maisie’s mom has been very conscientious about the most sustainable way to do things. As she got older, Maisie started to realize and understand what her mom was doing and started trying to get involved. Throughout most of middle and high school, she has been passionate about trying to make a difference in any way she can. While her passion for sustainability has been there for a long time, Maisie’s time working at Replenish has only fueled her passion, and taught her new ways to be sustainable!
Maisie’s favorite products are the shampoo/conditioner bars, the refillable candles, and the Routine deodorant on refill!

Ting
Ting joined Replenish in May 2024. She is originally from Taiwan, but now calls Dover home. She and her are very active in the greater Dover community! They participate in Trash Pick-Ups with the Dover Doers, host Strong Town meetings with Seacoast community members, and are part of a Board Game Club. Ting is an experienced and exceptional baker, and owns her own business: Sweet Ting’s Cookies.
As a child Ting learned about sustainable products made of loofah, bamboo, and 100% cotton from her late grandma before she even knew what sustainability meant. It wasn’t until she moved to the US as a young adult that she realized the “old-fashioned” household items she used were much better for the environment.
Ting’s favorite items from Replenish are: refillable Routine deodorant, the Good Flower Herbal Powder Cleanser, Geometry towels, + Skoy scrubbies.

Audrey also works as a waitress at Chapel + Main, and over the summers she works as a counselor at an art + design focused summer camp.
When Audrey moved out on her own and began her young adult life she realized she wanted to live more sustainably. She has always been avid about purchasing her clothing secondhand, but she wanted to more. She loves the outdoors and it is important to her that the preserve the natural beauty of our planet. With these two motivations she began using refill products and more sustainable household items as well. She is still in the beginnings of her sustainability journey but looks forward to continuing to live an eco friendly life!
