Zero Waste is "the conservation of all resources by means of responsible production, consumption, reuse, and recovery of products, packaging, and materials without burning and with no discharges to land, water, or air that threaten the environment or human health” - Zero Waste International Alliance

We work with vendors who...

• are local, within the Marianas, or within Micronesia before expanding our reach to the wider Pacific and then the United States
• are cottage makers, small businesses, and/or family operated
• ship with packaging material that is completely biodegradable or compostable
• comply with our closed-loop system, where products are delivered to us in containers that when emptied are sanitized and returned for reuse
• *If containers cannot be returned for reuse, we donate them to Guåhan Sustainable Culture, where they are given a second life as farming equipment.
