Investing in Water Stewardship & Community Prosperity with Shannon Wilson of Milo’s Tea Company

On this episode, we are joined by Shannon Wilson, program manager of sustainability for Milo's Tea Company. As Shannon describes the history and core values of Milo's - especially their use of simple, quality ingredients and their dedication to their employees - we see how a dual focus on people and nature can help a company thrive. Through their zero waste initiative, water stewardship goals, purposeful partnerships, and community outreach efforts, Milo's is continually investing in the communities and ecosystems around them, setting an example that, with a little bit of effort, conservation and commerce can happily coexist.

Conversing with Nature is hosted by Dr. Liz Fly, edited by Nicole Pehl, and produced by The Nature Conservancy. Original music provided by Matt Williams, cover art designed by Amy Nguyen, and funding provided by the Therblig Foundation and The Nature Conservancy.
