Lavender and Green Dreams at Aromas For Giving
Vicky Rathje was running a small business selling scented therapeutic oils when she noticed an interesting trend. More and more of her customers began inquiring about all-natural and organic products. “No one was really doing it,” said Rathje, owner of Aromas for Giving based in Santa Rosa Valley, Calif., so she decided that she would. “The initial investment of being organic was higher, but in the long run, our operating costs are probably lower from being organic than nonorganic,” said Rathje. Now, she is a USDA-certified lavender grower with 10,000 plants. Aromas for Giving’s line of therapeutic oils, lavender bouquets and lavender sachets are all imprintable and are not only environmentally responsible, but make for one of the nicest (smelling) promotional products a distributor can find.
