Your support matters

Support wild plants, the people who rely on them, and help secure a sustainable future for our planet.

Key projects:

We are currently fundraising to support our Standard Revision project. The current version of the FairWild Standard (v2.0) has been in place since 2010. While ground-breaking at the time, the global sustainability agenda has continued to develop over the intervening years, and the Standard and associated implementation tools are now in need of review to enhance the effectiveness of the Standard and increase its impact by enabling wider implementation. The goal of the project is, in the first instance, to contribute to the achievement of SDG 12 (Responsible consumption and production), in relation to wild-harvested plant ingredients. You can read more about the project here.

We are also fundraising for our Operator Support Fund. seeks to support FairWild’s mission by providing a range of financial and technical support measures to wild plant collection businesses (“operators”). Typically, these businesses and the collectors who supply them are vulnerable to disruptions to their livelihoods from environmental, social and other factors, usually more so than other actors in the value chain, as well as being more severely impacted by them. Technical and financial support will help to increase operator resilience by conserving biodiversity and managing their natural resources sustainably through the framework of the FairWild Standard. You can read more about the fund here.

Thank you for your support.
