Ethical Trade

We’ve had relationships with many growers around the world for more than 30 years, and it’s very important to us that workers are treated fairly and with respect, and that farming techniques support environmental health and economic growth. The growers are our partners, and together, we ensure the botanicals Celestial Seasonings purchases are collected or harvested with minimal impact on the environment, while local jobs and businesses are nurtured.

Our new packaging displays a special “Ethical Trade” logo with copy that explains our commitment to sustainable harvests and fair wages. We’ve practiced this philosophy since our inception, and are proud to let consumers know of our commitment to ethical trading practices.
