Shop Organic for EcoUnit Credits

Help the environment when you shop, with EcoUnit credits

When you visit Ray’s Food Place, you have several reasons to shop organic:  concern for the environment, a desire for a healthy lifestyle and… the ability to earn EcoUnit credits.

EcoUnit is a shoppers reward program launched in Central Oregon at Ray’s this year. Yet, you don’t have to live here to make a difference!

Check out the EcoUnit website for more information on how to sign up your business to participate:

EcoUnit’s mission is to connect companies with eco-aware consumers in order to accelerate the introduction of more sustainable products and services. By rewarding participating consumers with EcoUnit credits, we also enable individuals to embrace the environment as a cause. Companies are simple: they want to sell products to consumers. But consumers are multi-dimensional, and how environmental and sustainability issues impact their buying decisions varies by person, place, and priorities. EcoUnit gives a voice to the consumer in order to help companies develop more environmentally-friendly, more sustainable products and services.

Choose organic and help the environment with EcoCredits

But getting back to Central Oregon…. From now until the end of the year (December 31, 2009), purchases of Organic Valley products from Ray’s can entitle you to EcoUnit credits – 10 for a single item, and 25 for two or more.  With your credits, you can register to support local environmental projects like the restoration of the Deschutes River Basin, through the EcoCredit website.

If this sounds like an appealing program for your business or region, check out the EcoCredit blog for more information.

Helping the environment by choosing organic, and also supporting local eco-projects – what a fresh way to turn consumerism on its head.
