Sustainable Practices & Ethical Ingredients
Gatherwise products aren’t just skincare—they’re a commitment to the earth. Our plant-infused formulations rely on organic farming and responsible harvesting, prioritizing ingredients grown in harmony with nature here at the Gatherwise Farm or within our community. When you choose our products, you’re supporting our farm, local farmers, ethical wildcraftering, and a supply chain that values environmental stewardship. Each jar and bottle carries the essence of sustainable farms and forests, connecting you directly to the natural world.
Supporting Local Farms & Communities
Small farms are the heart of our ingredients. By sourcing locally and sustainably, we empower family-owned and women-owned farms that uphold organic and regenerative practices. Your support helps these farms thrive, fostering resilience in communities that depend on ethical agriculture.

Eco-Conscious Packaging: A Story of Sustainability
Sustainability doesn’t stop with our ingredients. Our packaging is thoughtfully crafted with small businesses and the environment in mind:
Sustainable Boxes: Made from trees grown and processed in FTC-certified mills in the U.S., using soy-based inks and water-based coatings. Every box reflects a commitment to reducing our environmental footprint.
Recyclable Bottles: Printed by a small U.S.-based business, our bottles combine practicality with purpose. Supporting these local businesses keeps skilled craftspeople employed and ensures high-quality, eco-friendly products.
Labels Printed in the U.S.: Our labels are also printed domestically, ensuring top quality while supporting American businesses and reducing shipping emissions.
Compostable Lip Balm Tubes: Our lip balm tubes are fully compostable, ensuring that even the smallest products leave no lasting impact on the environment.
Reusable Tin Salve Containers: These durable tins are designed for reuse or recycling, minimizing waste and promoting a circular economy.
These choices may seem small, but they collectively contribute to a more sustainable world—one product at a time.
