Sustainability

Empowering Nature, Nurturing Sustainability

RidgeCrest Herbals is proud to be a Certified B Corporation, balancing purpose with profit. This means we're committed to considering the environmental impact of our business practices. Reducing our carbon footprint is a major focus for us, and we actively seek ways to minimize our environmental impact throughout the entire product life cycle. 

Here's how we're turning that commitment into action:

Smart Distribution
Our journey towards sustainability extends to our shipping practices. We collab with EcoEnclose, a woman/minority-owned packaging company with a sustainability focus to ship our Almanacs each year. We're reducing emissions and minimizing our environmental impact, one shipment at a time.

Embracing Remote Work
Our remote work policy embraces a modern work culture and significantly cuts down on commuting emissions, developing a sustainable work environment. Our local employees work from home 3-4 days a week and are absolutely crushing it while they do. 

Local Manufacturers 
We work closely with local manufacturers in our area as much as possible. Not only does that support our local economy, but it reduces our carbon footprint from shipping costs dramatically. 

Behind the Scenes of Sustainability: Our Greenly Project Impact
We work with The Greenly Project to annually assess our carbon footprint and gain insight into programs and processes we can implement to improve our environmental impact. They help us see where we are, and get to where we want to be. 

Other things we do:

• A quarterly file cleanup party to clear out our inboxes and old files to reduce file storage energy usage
• Eco-friendly cleaning supplies in our offices
• Hand towels in the bathrooms to reduce waste
• Biannual material impact assessments
• Recycling bins in our offices and warehouse
• LED lights in our warehouse
• As a company, we commit to picking up trash when out hiking/walking/etc.

 From energy-efficient practices to sustainable asset management, every step we take is a step towards a greener future.
