Banyan Community

As an Ayurvedic business and one of a growing number of certified B Corp companies, we see the inherent connection between our own health and the health of the world. Alongside our commitment to help people achieve and maintain optimal health and well-being, we must also remember to care for the health of our people, our communities, and the planet.

Bringing conscientiousness to our social and environmental impact and implementing ethical business practices in alignment with our values is a huge part of the B Corp meaning. As a part of the larger B Corp community, we are committed to using business as a force of good while holding ourselves to a high standard of transparency, accountability, and continual improvement.

In the world of sustainable brands and socio environmental awareness, Banyan is leading the way with community offerings such as our Community Grant Fund, Living Ayurveda Internship, and our ongoing commitment to high-quality products that are organic, fairly-traded, and sustainably sourced.
