Building Healthy Rivers One Herb at a Time

Destructive land practices degrade our water quality and threaten its future each day. With an increasing global population and burgeoning climate change, scientists agree that dangers to our precious freshwater ecosystems are everywhere. Now is the time to sound the alarms and support organizations that work to protect our waterways.

Recently, we partnered with the Pacific Rivers Council, an incredible non-profit that is committed to protecting and restoring rivers, their watersheds, and the native species that greatly depend on them.

Every living creature depends on water. Streamed from flowing rivers, water brings life to our lands and provides the vital force our herbs need to grow. Without moving to sustainable practices and an emphasis on organic farming, there is little chance that future generations will have healthy rivers full of thriving fish populations and clean drinking water. Imagine the consequences.

To help get the word out, we decided to create an ad highlighting the tireless efforts made by the Pacific Rivers Council. Our talented Art Director, Tom, made these gorgeous fish sculptures by hand, using our certified organic herbs. Check out that detail! These sculptures perfectly illustrate the unbreakable connectedness between plants, animals, water, and all life on our planet.
