It's Official: We're Approved for People & Planet!


Well, after months and months of going through the screening process we were officially approved by Co-op America. It was a very thorough process, which makes all the more proud to have passed with flying colors.

Companies who are Co-op America certified must meet the following criteria (& prove it):

>> Actively use their businesses as tools for positive social change;

>> Run "values-driven" enterprises that operate according to principles of social justice and environmental sustainability;

>> Are socially and environmentally responsible in the way they source, manufacture, and market their products and run their offices and factories; and

>> Are committed to developing and employing extraordinary practices that benefit workers, customers, communities, and the environment.

We are VERY proud to carry this seal of approval & we're thrilled to help make our world a better place!
