Update to our EcoCart Relationship.
This Holiday Season we're thrilled to announce our choosing - for our EcoCart Project Selection, the Garcia River Forest Project for JAREDJAMIN Jewelry.
Why we care.
Some of America’s favorite forests are the redwoods along California’s north coast, known for its raw beauty and rich wildlife. But decades of aggressive timber harvesting by a succession of timber companies has left this landscape and local economy bruised and battered evidenced by depleted inventories of timber, a network of fragile roads on steep slopes of eroding soils, and miles of sediment-clogged the spawning habitat of both salmon and steelhead fish.
It's voluntary.
At checkout a voluntary donation for offsetting the carbon footprint of your purchase could be made in support of The Garcia River Forest Project!
To date, JAREDJAMIN Jewelry has offset 670 lbs of carbon across our Q4 2023 orders:
Background.
Situated in California's captivating Mendocino County, this vast 23,780-acre forest serves as a beacon of hope and optimism. Here, nature thrives, safeguarding precious habitats for rare and endangered species. Through sustainable forest management, Garcia River has become a guardian, storing over 77,000 tons of carbon emissions each year. The careful and selective logging of its Redwood and Douglas fir timber not only sustains the forest but also nurtures the local economy of Mendocino County.
It's a project that embodies our brand's values and fills us with gratitude for the positive impact we can make. *Consider an offset when you purchase at checkout!
Briefly, here are some project benefits.
- Reduces carbon emissions and fights climate change through forest protection.
- Restores and protects wildlife habitats via sustainable forest and timber management.
- Provides jobs and resources, boosting the local economy.
- Restores the young forest through selective logging.
