Branching Together Mission
Repurposing waste into Earth-friendly goods for your sustainable journey.
Why Sustainability?
|
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. 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.

Sourcing & Impact
|
In an effort to divert waste, we collect select discarded goods from local businesses that would otherwise end up in landfills, and transform these materials to make several of our products. One of our most frequently collected items is 5-gallon buckets, saving the land from large amounts of plastic product that does not decompose for around 1,000 years. 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.

Shipping
|
The vast majority of Branching Together packages are shipped with reused packing materials. We are always striving to reduce our impact where possible, and choose the most sustainable options when purchasing new materials. Paper inserts are printed on post consumer recycled paper. Our business cards and 'thank you' inserts are printed on green banana paper, a sustainably obtained byproduct of banana farming.
