Organics Unlimited works continually to enhance and add programs that will reach our goal of creating an ecosystem that can continue to fill the needs of our future generations. Our environmental sustainability program initiatives include:
- Efficient use and management of water
- Propagation of new plants to help eliminate infections from outside sources
- Composting of the stalks and leaves from harvested bananas, vegetable, animal and mineral residues that are permitted in organic agriculture
- Complete recycling program at every farm
- Organic fertilizers and methods
- Consideration for air quality and carbon footprint when expanding farms and shipping organic produce
We also work toward creating sustainable communities, providing a hand up for those living in rural areas near our farms, not a hand out. GROW funds help provide educational, dental and vision support, clean drinking water, milk for growing children and other necessities to those who need it the most, regardless of their employment, by partnering with nonprofit organizations already established within these communities. Our community sustainability initiatives include:
- Early Childhood Education
- Fortified milk discount program
- Access to higher education
- University student housing
- Dental care
- Vision care
- Access to clean drinking water
- Micro-business loans
