Embracing Sustainability: BLNCD Naturals’ Journey towards a Greener Future

79594 Kassidy Renee Paige

It’s Earth Day! Which gives us the perfect opportunity to speak on a subject that’s both foundational to our brand and close to our hearts: a sustainable future. BLNCD Naturals is an innovative and Earth-forward women-owned cannabis company based in Minneapolis, MN.

As the cannabis industry continues to flourish, change and evolve around us, the importance of sustainability cannot be overstated. This Earth Day, we’re proud to share our commitment to respecting the planet and the initiatives we’re working towards to create a greener future.

The Foundation of Sustainability

Sustainability is paramount in the cannabis industry and community, where practices include eco-friendly techniques, renewable resources and organic cultivation. At BLNCD Naturals, these principles fundamentally align with our core values and mission, driving us to make environmentally responsible choices at every turn.

Sustainable Cultivation Practices

Our commitment to sustainability absolutely extends to our cultivation practices. We collaborate with organic hemp farmers and source other organic ingredients for our range of products, from THC beverages and gummies to natural skin care and CBD wellness products.

Organic hemp farming emphasizes sustainable practices such as abstaining from synthetic inputs and employing techniques like crop rotation and natural pest control to promote biodiversity, soil health, and water conservation, thereby minimizing environmental impact.

By employing organic farming methods we not only do our part to protect the environment but also ensure the quality and purity of our final products.

Eco-Friendly Packaging

Minimizing our environmental impact is a top priority at BLNCD Naturals. From start to finish in our supply chain, we utilize paper and cardboard boxes, screen-printed glass bottles and aluminum tins and cans. We also implement recycled PakTechs and biodegradable packing peanuts to do our part to reduce plastic waste in the cannabis industry.

Community Engagement and Social Responsibility

Community engagement and social responsibility are integral to our public-facing sustainability efforts. We are proud to partner with One Tree Planted, an organization that commits to planting one new tree for every BLNCD order, whether wholesale or online. Supporting action-based causes aligned with sustainability allows us to give back to the community AND make meaningful change in the world.

Challenges and Future Goals

While we’ve made significant strides in our own sustainability journey, challenges persist. Industry regulations often result in increased packaging waste, such as limited quantities per container. However, we remain committed to finding innovative packaging solutions that maintain product freshness and safety during shipping. Looking ahead, we aim to further our sustainability efforts in manufacturing and distribution practices, through both partnered vendors and in-house initiatives.

At the end of the day, BLNCD’s dedication to sustainability is unwavering. From our cultivation practices and packaging choices to our community engagement and future goals, looking out for Mother Earth is at the heart of everything we do. This Earth Day, we encourage you to check out and support companies, organizations and causes that make a point to prioritize environmental responsibility.
