We are Planet-First.
While we are proud of the work we have accomplished so far, we also recognize that there is much to be done to ensure that we continue to work to transform our footprint. Through our partnerships with flagship organizations like 1% for The Planet, National Young Farmers Coalition, and the Women’s Earth Alliance, we’re taking steps to amplify our impact.

Our Planet-First Commitments
Setting a Standard
We aren’t shy about our environmental and social responsibility. We are working hard to take bold action to help create a healthier world — for people and the planet.

Our Commitment to Regenerative Agriculture
Soil quality is depleting at an alarming rate, which is diminishing the nutrient levels of the food grown in it. As a result, most people aren’t getting the nutrients they need from food alone.¹ Regenerative agriculture can help solve this soil crisis, address climate change, & increase nutrient density. We’re working to make regenerative agriculture a reality for a better future.

Proudly Plastic Neutral
We are the first B Corp vitamin and supplement company in North America to become Plastic Neutral Certified by rePurpose Global. Through this partnership, 1STSPOON has funded the recovery of 500,000 lbs of nature-bound plastic waste since 2022, which is equivalent to ~11.5 million plastic bottles. For every pound of plastic our brand generates, rePurpose Global will remove an equivalent amount of additional, verified plastic waste from the environment.

Supplier Code of Conduct
Our code ensures that all our suppliers operate with integrity, with ethical conduct, and with respect for the rights of all individuals & the environment.
