Healing and protecting nature is vital to our world’s wellbeing, so we’re working to ensure our entire business is carbon neutral by 2025. We’re also planning to give back to the environment by reducing additional carbon dioxide from the atmosphere by 2030.
All of our paper and cardboard packaging materials are fully recyclable and PEFC/FSC sustainable source-certified. Our labels are made from sustainably sourced wood fibre and plant based biodegradable inks. By 2025, we aim to have completely responsible packaging (recyclable, reusable, compostable).
Our headquarters, which features one of New Zealand’s largest solarpowered installations, was thoughtfully designed to give back to nature and to keep our team happy. Whether it’s from a lunchtime bushwalk, enjoying the community garden, or a morning tea snack from our onsite organic café.
We’re working hard to improve bees’ natural environments to ensure that they survive for thousands of years to come. Having planted over 10 million native trees to date, we’re helping rebuild vital ecosystems in marginal land, allowing nature to thrive again for future generations. We take pride in keeping our beekeeping operations pesticide-free by placing our hives in pristine untouched areas. So it’s no surprise that our honey shows absolutely no traces of herbicides like glyphosate.
With the help of a passionate team and world-class queen bee rearing site, we’ve introduced one million more bees into the wild (and counting). Making sure they’re nurtured every step of the way, from providing the finest hives to abundant nectar sources.
Protecting nature is a team effort, so we’ve shared our bee expertise with the world. From partnering with independent bee rescuers to save wild hives from extermination in America, to establishing hives and developing sustainable beekeeping practices with communities in Kenya.
We’ve planted over 10 million trees in New Zealand (Aotearoa) – helping to remove carbon from the air, improving water quality, and supporting biodiversity. We’re aiming to have planted 30 million trees by 2025.
To protect the biodiversity of our forests, we’ve teamed up with conservation organisations in New Zealand to help with pest control, tree planting, and research the ecological benefits of reforestation.
