Community
We act locally and think globally.
At Herbaland, we believe that everyone should have access to safe nutrition.
Herbaland is dedicated to supporting communities both locally and globally by providing earth-friendly nutrition and monetary support to those in vulnerable situations . Each year, we passionately volunteer, give, and partner with diverse communities, striving to be a business that gives back, while fostering strong bonds and connections around the world.
Charity Fundraiser Program
One key way Herbaland works with various charity partners is through supporting charity fundraisers. This can be done in a few ways, but generally through fundraising auctions! Since 2022, we’ve donated fundraising gift boxes to over 30 charities! Organizations such as Ecocooks, BC Women’s Health Foundation, Down Syndrome BC, Starlight Children’s Foundation, and many more.
