About Us

Most of you know Laura and her history with Byrd's Filling Station opening in summer 2019 with an online store and a big dream to offer bulk refills of every household staple and necessity.  While 2020 put the brakes on that dream, she opened San Mateo's first zero waste grocery store in May 2022.  Unfortunately due to numerous circumstances this store closed its door in August 2024.

My name is Emily, close friend of Laura's and huge supporter of the store since the inception.  I am taking it back to the online market it was in the beginning to keep supporting Laura's loyal customers and keep the dream moving while Laura takes a much needed life break.

I look forward to meeting those of you who I haven't seen at the store before and build this into the best Byrd's Plastic Free Market we can.
