April 22nd is Earth Day! Started in 1970 Earth Day reminds citizens of the world of the importance of environment conservation and sustainability, encouraging us to come together and take action for a healthier planet and brighter future.
Here's what we are doing at Goody Goodness for our planet:

Ensuring that any packaging is Eco-friendly
Educating our suppliers to use eco-friendly packaging and send products in eco-friendly packaging
