Borderlands Restoration L3C (BR), the first limited-profit social enterprise incorporated in Arizona, was created to address threats to the ecological and social integrity of the borderlands region. BR is building a marketing and distribution platform that enables environmentally and socially concerned citizens to easily effect positive change through the purchase of BR’s co-branded products and services.
These products and services support local communities and organizations striving to transition from extractive, unsustainable economies to a restoration economy that creates jobs, combats climate change, sources sustainably, while supporting the rich cultures and restoring the amazing biodiversity of the borderlands region. |
Our role is to provide marketing, sales, and distribution services to organizations and individuals offering sustainably produced products and services. By purchasing our products, customers directly support these efforts and enable change to a sustainable, climate adaptive, decarbonized economy.
BR achieves these goals in two ways:
● For consumers, enabling choice to effect change through their purchasing power.
● For producers, being a channel for sustainably produced goods and services, verifying to the greatest practical degree that products and services have no or minimal environmental impact, while telling the unique stories behind each product and service.
Our success depends on listening to and partnering with local community experts, craftspeople, and entrepreneurs to ensure that their fresh ideas find a market and become commercially viable.
Our vision is to strengthen the Borderlands Restoration Network and allied organization’s regional impact, name recognition, expert reputation, and contributions to large-scale ecological restoration, climate resilience, and transition the Southwest US and Northern Sonora, and Chihuahua to a restorative economy.
Be Part of the Change as we engage increasing numbers of landowners, land managers, and communities in more sustainable practices; increase and diversify sources of revenue for continued large-scale ecological restoration through product and service sales; increase the number of friends and supporters for the network; and increase income and provide better livelihoods.
