Sustainability Initiatives
We've been focused upon sustainability since the company started,
and are continually finding ways to do more
As part of our
B
Corp Certification
we
-
Create an annual
Sustainability Report
-
Signed up for the
Climate Collaborative program
We continue our robust general practices, but are excited about putting a more formal bench-marking program in place.
Look for more about our involvement with the
Climate Collaborative,
a group of manufacturers, retailers, distributors, brokers, suppliers and other concerned businesses from the natural foods industry working together to take bold action to reverse climate change.We've made commitments to reduce our impact
in
agriculture and packaging.
Recycling
can be a challenge
Municipal recycling programs limit what they accept.
Incorporating TerraCycle, we now recycle hairnets, tape dispensers, plastic film, pens, electronics, plastic packing straps, white Styrofoam, and many other things that would otherwise be landfilled.
