Notes on Nature

So, you’re the proud owner of a Faith In Nature X Rainkiss Poncho – congratulations! Your new, sustainable rainwear is designed to keep you dry for many rainy days to come. To keep it doing its job and looking its best, you’ll need to take good care of it. Here’s how to do just that…

There are business conferences, and then there’s Blue Summit. This annual gathering in Bristol is described as “the only purpose-driven summit for people in business inspired by the great outdoors.” We were there to talk about Nature On the Board, but we were also there to listen and learn. And with an impressive line-up of speakers and events, there was no shortage of ‘wow moments’.

The Faith In Nature X Rainkiss poncho was designed with rainy days in Nature in mind. Whether you...

Everyone loves a fresh new fragrance, and they don’t get fresher than this: our new Mint Body Wash has arrived. Our founder, Rivka, blended this one with extra-minty English peppermint oil, to pep up your shower (and your mood). Because mint, especially this mint, has a lot going for it. Here’s why we’re here for this heroic herb.

That’s a wrap! Our first ever crowdfunding campaign is officially closed – and we’re delighted to report that it was a huge success. Here's how it went...

Phew, that was fun! While our tents dry off, we’re reflecting on the muddy fun we had at both Bluedot and Kendal Calling festivals. Besides finding time to dance to great acts like Roisin Murphy and Chic, we spread the word about Nature’s rights and handed out some much-appreciated soap. Here’s more about what we got up to in the fields…

Festival season has landed and we’re very excited about it. We’re heading to Bluedot and Kendal Calling – and we’ve been discussing the very serious topic of festival must-haves. Aside from the obvious (and let’s face it: boring) stuff like a tent, sensible footwear and a sleeping bag, what should you be packing in your rucksack this summer?

We’re shouting it from the treetops: we just became a B Corp! But what does ‘B Corp’ mean? We ask...

While we can (and will!) give you anecdotal insights into all the changes we’ve seen, a more rigorous approach is also necessary — one that is independent and objective. Which is why we're so happy to share that you don’t just have to take our word for it. The University of Sydney's Sydney Environment Institute is conducting a two year research program into the effects of Faith In Nature’s decision to appoint Nature to its board.

It’s nearly eight months since we made Nature a director of Faith In Nature — giving the natural world a voice and a vote on all we do. It felt like planting a seed in the business world — not knowing exactly what it would grow into. But though it is still early days, green shoots are appearing and we’re discovering more and more about it. It can be fragile, it can be forthright, it can be playful. But it is always transformative.

Woohoo! Thanks to our partnership with World Land Trust, we’re proudly carbon balanced. But who are World Land Trust? And what exactly does ‘carbon balanced’ mean?

Our founder, Rivka Rose, started Faith In Nature in 1974 when she was in her early twenties. Almost 50 years later, we talk to her about what her success and the growth of Faith In Nature mean to her.
