Helping You and the Environment:

** We plant 5 trees w/ every order through Sustainable Harvest International. These trees help restore the Central American Rainforest, provide food, & help farmers reverse rainforest destruction w/ sustainable land-use practices. The conservation of our rainforests provide us w/ incredible health resources, food, cleaner air, & helps preserve the lives of plants, animals, insects, birds, & humans. Want to help us plant even more trees? Check out the "Replant the Rainforest" section in our Online Store.

** We offset the energy used in the creation & shipping of our products, & all overall energy used by our company. We do this by purchasing Carbon Credits through Native Energy, which fund the production of clean & renewable energy. By evolving into the use of clean & renewable energy, we are releasing our dependence on foreign oil, & reducing our emissions of carbon dioxide & other fossil fuel pollution.

** We use 100% recycled paper for our brochures, envelopes, wholesale information, marketing, mailings, etc. Our products are packaged in recyclable &/or biodegradable packaging.

** All of our products are Vegan Certified through the Vegan Cosmetics Organization, lessoning our impact on our earth & the environment.

** We have signed the Compact for Safe Cosmetics. This Compact is a coalition working to protect your health by calling for the elimination of chemicals used in the cosmetics industry linked to cancer, birth defects, & other health problems.

** We recycle all shipping peanuts used in shipping supplies to our doorstep, & also act as an informal peanut recycling center. This continues the chain of recycling & prevents these peanuts from going directly to our landfills. All shipping peanuts purchased by us are biodegradable.

** We are a member of Co-op America, a non-profit organization whose mission is to harness economic power to create a socially just & environmentally sustainable society.
