We just returned from the New York International Gift Fair
and are proud to announce some exciting recognition that our 80 Acres Body Care received by the show's
Sustainability: Design for a Better World initiative.

Beginning in 2008, the NYIGF started curating a special exhibit and educational series showcasing the gift industry's best eco-friendly products and business practices. In order to be included, products must meet the following criteria:
-
"Green" Products: products that are manufactured or constructed with only recycled, recycleable and/or sustainable materials
-
Environmentally-Friendly Production Practices: manufacturers who are using renewable or alternative sources of energy in production, including wind, sun and alternative fuels
- Socially Responsible Business Practices
- Meet NYIGF's "zero tolerance" policy for toxic products: VOC; Lead: PVC, without recommendation for use and disposal, and unless repurposed; and Aniline dyes, formaldehyde, chlorine (for textiles)

This year we submitted two products from our Lavender and Blood Orange collections and both were showcased in the
Sustainability: Design for a Better World display: our newly-released
Muslin Gift Sets and our popular
Body Balm.
Our entire 80 Acres Body Care collection is made locally in small batches using USDA-certified organic olive oil and a rich variety of botanically sourced ingredients. We use recycled packaging as much as possible and operate a wind turbine at our olive ranch which is designed to meet 100% of our energy needs. All of our products are paraben, pthalate and sulfate-free and never tested on animals.
Well done, 80 Acres!
