    Palm Done Right Deepens Commitment to Retailers and the Environment

    Sustainable Palm Oil Platform Taking Steps Toward Regenerative Agriculture and a Retailer Network

    Boulder, Colo. February 26, 2018Palm Done Right, a mission-based educational platform dedicated to proving that palm oil can be grown for good is committed to improving sustainable practices. Natural Habitats who developed the Palm Done Right platform, is dedicated to improving our food systems through responsible ingredient sourcing and regenerative agriculture practices. They believe that organic, regenerative farming is the solution to preserving and improving the ecosystems, soil, and biodiversity.

    Working closely with Terra Genesis International, the company will assess how Regenerative Ag may apply to oil palm farming and will allow us to build the path for other farmers and companies that would like to move from unsustainable practices to organic and fair practices in a regenerative landscapes approach. This is a first step in the process of holistic land management practices targeted at finding innovative, new ways to help reverse climate change.

    “The work we are doing with Terra Genesis is a critical piece to better understand how we can make a positive impact in our farming efforts,” says Managing Director, Neil Blomquist. “We are committed to continually finding better ways to improve the environment and are eager to share those updates with the industry and be a leading force for good.”

    Retailer support is a critical aspect of spreading the Palm Done Right message.

    We are pleased to announce our new dedicated Retailer Sign-up platform as a way to engage customers and activate change with the goal of creating an industry-wide movement. http://www.palmdoneright.com/en/become-a-retail-supporter/

    “We couldn’t do this work and spread our message without the help of natural foods retailers who have always been and continue to be educators and leaders in making positive change,” says, Natural Habitats USA Sales Director Caroline Warren.
