Ethical Manufacturing With Purpose
Jonnon's collections are made in small batches using recycled textiles wherever possible, including their signature repurposed street banner bags with familiar sights from local neighbourhoods, Whistler, and Cirque du Soliel events.
These transformed banners don’t just reduce waste; they make incredible bags. Bold, graphic, and one-of-a-kind, each piece features striking colours and patterns that look amazing while staying exceptionally durable & functional.
Every purchase supports meaningful employment and keeps valuable materials out of the landfill.

Dedicated to assisting young autistic adults overcome workplace barriers.
PASS Marketplace holds a mission that is simple yet profound: to help individuals build confidence, develop real-world skills, and experience the pride that comes from meaningful, purposeful work. They create opportunities that honour each person’s abilities and celebrate their place in the community.
Their journey began in 2016 with soy candles crafted entirely by program members. After an overwhelming response, their signature line has grown into a beautiful range of handcrafted goods, including artwork cards, diffusers, macrame, beeswax wraps, and more.
PASS Marketplace items are often the highlights in BudgieBox gifts. The quality is exceptional, the packaging is thoughtful, and the care behind each product truly shines.

"We have found success with our farmers by first developing a strong family-like bond with them and then exploring unique market opportunities together.
We spent years researching the best methods to craft a new, whole-leaf, artisan tea from Kenya, and these efforts culminated with the launch of our Purple Teas, which won Product of the Year in BC.
Purple Tea only grows in Kenya and is the healthiest loose-leaf tea you can drink, containing more antioxidants than green tea. We have set up Kenya's first-ever farmer-direct tea partnership. This Fair-Trade partnership has created over 200 jobs for tea pickers/farmers."

"I believe the epitome of thoughtfulness is sending or receiving a handwritten note. My goal with Inkwell Cards is to provide shops with high-quality and thoughtful greeting cards so that individuals can spread messages of love, hope and kindness through handwritten notes.
A meaningful part of our process is collaborating with talented local artists. Their unique perspectives, styles, and stories help shape designs that feel personal, heartfelt, and rooted in community."
By working closely with creatives in our own backyard, InkWell offers cards that not only inspire connection but also support and uplift the artistic community around us.
