Every April, Earth Month is an opportunity to hit pause, reflect on our impact, and take real action for the planet. Earth Day was first celebrated in 1970, and has since grown into a month-long movement dedicated to sustainability, awareness, and environmental action. At Herbaland, we believe Earth Month is more than a social media campaign — it’s an everyday opportunity to create change and build momentum for our people and our planet. 

Herbaland and Sustainability🌱

Sustainability is at the core of everything we do. As a certified B Corp company, we believe in using business as a force for good. That means being mindful of how we make our products, how we package them, and how we show up for our community.

At our manufacturing facility in Richmond, BC, we make all of our products locally to reduce transport emissions and support the Canadian economy. We work with fair-trade suppliers like Cargill and North of 49 Naturals, and all of our products are vegan, non-GMO, and low in sugar, helping reduce the resource intensity of our ingredients.

In 2024 alone, we donated nearly $200,000 worth of products to charitable organizations like Too Good To Go, Backpack Buddies, and Mamas for Mamas, and we’ve planted over 700,000 trees through our partnership with Veritree over the last 3 years!

We also support Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives in our workplace and beyond, and champion women’s empowerment through our partnerships, hiring practices, and campaigns.

Our 3rd Annual Sustainable Lifestyle Scholarship🧑‍🎓

One of the most exciting things we do every Earth Month is open applications for our Sustainable Lifestyle Scholarship!

This initiative is all about recognizing and rewarding Canadian students who are passionate about making a difference. We’ll be awarding three $1,000 scholarships to help students with the financial (and emotional!) challenges that can come with living sustainably.

If you're a Canadian high school, undergrad, or grad student, or you know someone who is, we want to hear your stories!

📅 Applications open March 11 and close June 30.

Your Money = Your Power

As Earth Month encourages us to think more critically about the impact of our everyday choices, one growing trend we’re especially excited about is the Buy Canada movement. More and more Canadians are starting to ask important questions—Where was this product made? How was it made? Who does it support?

This shift in mindset is powerful. Choosing to support and buy local, Canadian-made products doesn’t just boost the local economy—it also reduces transportation emissions and builds stronger, more resilient communities. It’s a meaningful way to align your values with your purchases, and Earth Month is the perfect time to lean into that.

At the end of the day, every dollar we spend is a vote for the kind of world we want to live in. We don’t have to be perfect, but we can be more mindful of the brands we choose to support. Like Herbaland for example, proudly Made in Canada🇨🇦😉

Let’s use Earth Month as a reminder to reflect, reset, and take one small step toward a better future - for our communities, our planet, and ourselves.

💚 Thank you for supporting Herbaland and our mission to do better every day. Happy Earth Month!
