Here at Seek to Spring, sustainability is a core value that has found its way into many facets of the brand. Because of this, all packaging components have been thoughtfully selected with our planets future in mind. While many of my selected materials are made from sustainable sources, that is only part of the process. I need your help in making sure supplies end up in the right place! I have created this page to share component details and recommended disposal processes for each packaging item. Should you have any additional questions, please feel free to send me a message by clicking here!
