One Tree Planted

Avant is committed to supporting the local communities in which it operates. Studies show for every gram of cannabis sold there can be as much as 70 grams of packaging waste.1 As a company committed to minimizing its environmental impact, Avant has partnered with One Tree Planted to make a positive impact in each selling province, including Avant's hometown of Kelowna, British Columbia.

"Over the past years we have seen the devastating effects of global warming in British Columbia, specifically the recent forest fires in our hometown, Kelowna, which impacted many of our friends, families and employees," said Mr. Singhavon. "At Avant, we know planting trees is one of the best ways to sustain our planet and we are proud to support One Tree Planted and their on-the-ground reforestation efforts."

For every case sold from the TreeHugger™ line, Avant will contribute to the planting of trees in each selling province. The trees are planted by local partner organizations and community volunteers in areas impacted by deforestation.
