Shop sustainably this holiday season

 

This holiday gifting season, we invite you to forgo fast consumerism and join us in pledging to shop consciously for sustainable Christmas gifts. Take part in the #GreenFridayChallenge, a movement to inspire thoughtful consumption and advocate for sustainable living in everyday life. 

What is sustainable shopping? It’s recognizing that every purchase has a social, environmental and ethical impact. What and from whom you purchase presents an opportunity to make your voice heard and support brands that align with your beliefs. 

Here are some of our favorite makers, who align with our own B-corp values of reduced inequality, lower levels of poverty, a healthier environment, stronger communities and the creation of more high quality jobs with dignity and purpose
