(PRESS RELEASE) EVANSVILLE, IN – Earthborn Holistic Pet Food has reached its goal of recycling one million bags by Earth Day 2022 and planting one million trees by Arbor Day 2022. Through UPCs for Trees and a partnership with Trees for the Future, Earthborn Holistic plants trees in deforested areas around the world. Customers collect UPCs from empty bags of Earthborn Holistic products and return them to local participating retailers or mail them in to a designated collection site. In return, trees are planted to create forest gardens and help families out of poverty worldwide. Throughout the month of April, one returned UPC equaled one tree planted.
With its TerraCycle partnership, Earthborn Holistic pet food & treat bags are 100% recyclable through the Earthborn ReBorn Program. Consumers drop off empty bags at participating retailers for recycling and upcycling all at company expense. Reaching the 1,000,000 bags recycled milestone is also equal to keeping 103,356 lbs of waste out of the landfill. “We’re thrilled to have hit the one millionth milestone! A big thank you goes out to all of our loyal customers and retailers who participate in both of these programs. We couldn’t have achieved this without you. It’s a wonderful feeling knowing that we’re making a difference.” said Brandi Kramer, Midwestern Pet Foods marketing coordinator. “At Midwestern Pet Foods, we love producing nutritious food for pets while simultaneously supporting sustainability.” For more information visit earthbornholisticpetfood.com.
