Support Socially Responsible Businesses

A legislation being voted on in San Francisco may offer incentives to socially responsible businesses pursuing contracts in the city. Socially responsible businesses are businesses that work towards bettering their community environmentally or socially, rather than just focusing on ROI. These “benefit corporations” make their city a better place by giving more money to non-profits than traditional ROI-focused businesses and by creating a positive impact on the society and environment.

Grower’s Secret believes that companies, as well as individuals, should be environmentally and socially responsible.
