Ensuring a Sustainable Future
Sustainability is essential for the long-term survival and well-being of our planet. By prioritizing eco-friendly practices, we contribute to building a more sustainable future, where resources are conserved, waste is minimized, and the Earth's natural systems can thrive.
Being eco-friendly isn't just a choice; it's a responsibility we embrace wholeheartedly.
We strive to integrate sustainability into every aspect of our business, from sourcing materials to packaging and beyond. Some of our eco-friendly solutions include:
- 100% compostable and recyclable packaging for our products made in-house
- Paper packaging materials that can easily be recycled
- Recycled packaging material: you may receive a package that has bubble wrap, plastic bubbles, peanuts, etc. These are all materials that we have received from our vendors and are being reused to reduce waste. We encourage you to pay it forward and reuse them for personal packages as well!
- Sustainably sourced ingredients and materials
- Offer the option for customers to choose to make their order carbon neutral during checkout
Take the carbon out of your shipment
When you select carbon-neutral shipping, you effectively eliminate the carbon emissions from your order's shipping.
Here's how it works. We partner with a trusted company, EcoCart, which uses a proprietary algorithm to calculate the carbon footprint of each order in real-time, considering factors like shipping distance, package weight, and product type. At checkout, customers can then donate the exact amount needed to reduce those emissions to vetted, scientifically verified, and ethically proven projects. EcoCart states that over 90% of each dollar donated goes to sustainability projects.
Let's meet the project that your donations go to:
Keo Seima Wildlife Sanctuary
Spanning over 290,000 hectares in Eastern Cambodia, the protected area is home to a diverse array of wildlife, including 84 globally threatened species and the world's largest population of black-shanked douc and yellow-cheeked crested gibbon. The KSWS also holds a unique cultural significance for the Indigenous Bunong people, who have called this forest home for centuries and whose culture and livelihoods are deeply entwined with the forest.
A Note on Our Herbs
Herbs are the foundation of almost all of our nutritious treats and we offer a huge range of herbal forages as well as individual herbs. We understand the significance of sourcing organic, sustainably sourced herbs for the well-being of our beloved rabbits. By choosing organic herbs, we prioritize the health and safety of our furry companions.
Organic farming practices eliminate the use of synthetic pesticides, herbicides, and genetically modified organisms, ensuring that the herbs are free from harmful chemicals. Additionally, sustainable sourcing promotes responsible land management, biodiversity preservation, and ethical treatment of farmers and workers. By supporting organic and sustainable herb production, we contribute to a cleaner environment, promote animal welfare, and provide our rabbits with the highest quality, nutrient-rich herbs that enhance their overall health and vitality. We believe that conscious choices in sourcing herbs directly benefit our furry friends and the planet we all share.
