Whole Harmony Achieves Historic USDA Organic Certification at Tea Manufacturing Facility on Akwesasne Reservation
Whole Harmony becomes the only organic tea manufacturer and one of a few certified organic manufacturers on a Native American reservation in the United States.
- Syracuse, NY (1888PressRelease) June 15, 2024 - Whole Harmony, a pioneer in plant-based wellness, proudly announces the USDA Organic certification of its tea manufacturing facility, making it the only organic tea manufacturer and one of only a handful of certified organic manufacturers on a Native American reservation in the United States. This monumental achievement underscores Whole Harmony’s commitment to quality and sustainability.
Whole Harmony's founder and CEO, Stacey Wood, expressed her pride: “We’ve been striving to achieve this for so long. It's a huge undertaking to get your products certified organic, let alone an entire facility. This recognition is a testament to our team’s dedication and hard work.”
This certification is milestone that signifies more than just adherence to organic standards for Whole Harmony; it represents the resilience and perseverance of Native American cultures. Despite historical persecution, they continue to provide healing and medicine, just as their ancestors did. Stacey highlighted its cultural importance: “The coolest thing about this is it's on my reservation in Akwesasne (upstate NY) at our retail store. My team and I in Akwesasne are from the Bear Clan, traditionally known as the medicine makers and we're so proud to carry on this healing tradition. I love that in some small way, we’re reviving + living our culture”
Jillian Zeigler, Certification Administrator, Manager – Inspections & Inspection Process at Baystate Organic Certifiers, commented on the achievement, stating, “It’s a fantastic achievement with a further-reaching impact for the immediate community and overall region than many might realize.”
As Whole Harmony scales its tea products nationwide, Stacey acknowledged the tireless efforts of her dedicated team, both at the Akwesasne facility and in Connecticut. “Please give our team a big hand. This certification is a testament to our impeccable record-keeping, spotless cleaning, exceptional team communication, and commitment to the highest quality ingredients on the planet."
