Our company is 100% Aboriginal owned and operated. The partners live and work right here in Thompson
and we endeavor to purchase as many of our products and services locally as possible.
We are proud supporters and
sponsors of many environmental or healthy community initiatives such as the Community Clean Up, the Thompson Tri-Athalon,
the Million Dollar Hole in One, Babies Best Start and COPPS to name a few.
We choose not to sell our water
in single-use containers such as the 1, 1.5 and 2 litre jugs because we do not want to contribute to the problem of empty
beverage containers ending up in land fills or worse - on the streets of our communities.
We encourage the use
of the 18.9 l refillable jugs (5 gallon) and ask that you use a refillable water bottle the next time you go for a walk, bike
ride or other event where you would normally purchase a bottle of water.
