Episode 91 – Lessons From Grandma: The Benefits Of Sustainability

Joining us is Kandra Churchwell, owner of Denver based Alo Goods.  She makes soaps, skin care, hair care, and oral care products with all-natural ingredients and packaged in sustainable materials.

Kandra was highly influenced by her grandma as a child. Ma taught her how to paint and draw, how to do household chores with a smile, and how to use a little as possible to get a job done… whether it was being time efficient with your chores so you could have more play time, or using only the right amount of “stuff” to save money.

Kandra is also the author of The Natural Soap Color Palette, a book for soap makers to help them learn how to make soaps without synthetic or lab made colorants. Locally, Kandra is an active member of the Good Business Colorado Plastic and Packaging Task Force which is currently working on creating the Sustainable Packaging Decision Tree, a tool to help product manufactures and food service industries to select sustainable materials for their packaging needs.
