Gift 4: Sweet Potato Jerky Chews from Petaluma
Brand: Petaluma
Impact: Petaluma is on a mission to create a more sustainable and humane agricultural system by using ingredients that offer optimal nutrition, reduced ecological harm, and humane treatment of farmworkers and animals.

What’s great about this gift: This Sweet Potato Jerky is made exclusively from organic, air-dried sweet potatoes grown in North Carolina.

Gift 5: Compostable Poop Bags from Earth Rated
