Recyclable Containers

In an effort to protect our environment we package our products in glass or recyclable plastic containers whenever possible and constantly try to find better more ecologically friendly containers. We encourage our customers to send old containers back to us for re-use or recycling. All of our packaging is made using paper harvested from sustainable forests. What does that mean?

Sustainable forest management (SFM) is the management of forests according to the principles of sustainable development. Sustainable forest management uses very broad social, economic and environmental goals. A range of forestry institutions now practice various forms of sustainable forest management and a broad range of methods and tools are available that have been tested over time.

 

We're also Fair Trade!

This means we use local, organic farmers when ever possible. When we can't get an ingredient locally we use a network of business' that are certified fair trade by Co-Op America!

Also we're a small business. We work very hard to stay that way! It seems counter productive, but we believe a smaller businessmeans a smaller carbon footprint. It means we use less resources. That's good for the planet!
