Conscious Goods for Conscious People ~ Tips for Conscious Holiday Shopping

The call for consumers to shop local and support small businesses is heard throughout the holiday season with buzzwords like “sustainability,” “social responsibility” and “conscious consumerism.”

But what does it mean to be socially conscious when it comes to holiday shopping? We’ve put together a simple guide to help you navigate the ins and outs of shopping consciously. From artisan made and small batch to a transparent supply chain and sustainable partnerships, we’ll walk you through what to look for as you become a more conscious consumer.

Artisan Made

Handcrafted goods and products made by real people, not mass produced by machines.

 

Small Batch

Intentionally made products that are infused with an energy that carries the wisdom and skills of the maker, their community, as well as the generational knowledge of makers and formulators.

 

Transparent Supply Chain

Understanding the three pillars of a transparent supply chain (sourcing of raw materials, the production processes and the distribution methods) makes it possible to trace how a product was made and under what conditions.

 

Sustainable Partnerships

A commitment to locally made and globally sourced fair trade goods has a sustainable and equitable impact on the communities in which the products were made.
