Our BeginningsAs we live in a critical time, Branching Together was created to provide a way to bring accessible sustainability to everyone through both products and resources. The exponential use of finite resources and neglect of other environmental exploitation threaten not only other species, but humanity’s way of life and the future of our planet. In a time where it may be challenging, overwhelming, or inaccessible to address the vast and often ignored environmental issues that surround us all, it is essential that everyone stand together to do what we can to live a sustainable lifestyle. In response to the environmental crisis, we raised funds to develop and travel with an environmental justice display which we set up in 10 major cities across the US in the Spring of 2018. Read about the project here.
Now home from The Journey, we decided to continue what we set out to do, which is to help as many people as possible to live with intentional respect for the earth. To do this, we are continually updating our website with home how-to's, articles, and books to provide a road map for responsible living. The resources available on this website provide a place to learn about a variety of environmental matters and actions, regardless of where you are on your voyage. We also released new products to help you live even more sustainably! Many people we spoke to across the U.S. on our environmental justice journey echoed a desire to change habits in their lives to support the environment. Due to this, we aim to design products that combine simple and common changes people vowed to make in order to help the earth and themselves. |

Our Present & Future
As a business, Branching Together strives to empower people through knowledge and products to become better stewards of the earth and of each other. We are committed to creating products through reimagined resources and redirected waste, which poses a massive threat to our environment. Our product sourcing allows environmentally conscious consumers to support the earth through purchasing decisions.
In an effort to divert waste, we collect select discarded goods from local businesses that would otherwise be thrown out and transform these materials to make several of our products. Additionally, most of our products are reused and repurposed from other materials. Upcycling waste not only allows us to provide unique products to help you live more sustainably, it also enables local businesses to reroute their waste. Alongside this, Branching Together prioritizes supporting meaningful causes to amplify our collective impact. For every purchase of a Branching Together product made of wood, one tree is planted. Also, 10% of each purchase of a River Rock Necklace is donated to American Rivers, which contributes to fresh water preservation and cleaning up rivers.
Ultimately, all of our products and resources strive to help you continue the transition to a sustainable lifestyle, reduce your waste by creating products with repurposed materials, and spread the word about sustainable living. We hope you'll join us on the journey to reconnect to the world around us by living with intentional respect for the earth.
