Imagine coming into a business, learning the ropes, fighting through challenges to establish a solid business model only to decide at the moment pretty much everything is clicking, that your number one revenue driver no longer fits your moral compass. 

That’s what Basil Camu was faced with when he rose through the ranks of his family business Leaf & Limb. Basil’s father founded the company in the late ‘90s as a tree trimming and maintenance service in North Carolina. Father and son joined forces in 2010 and started a remarkable journey together that would transform the company and just might transform the industry. 

There are sustainability journeys and then there is the family and team at Leaf & Limb, who are pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in the landscape industry.

Letting Go of the Trapeze with Leaf & Limb's Basil Camu

When our team first met Andrée Cazabon it was love at first Zoom call. Andrée is an award winning documentary filmmaker from Jed's home country of Canada. We connected because she runs Reconciliation Education, an organization that creates and curates a series of bilingual online courses which promote a renewed relationship between Indigenous Peoples and Canadians.

We cover a lot in this episode, beginning with her groundbreaking and frankly heartbreaking documentary, Third World Canada, a controversial film that made a lot of powerful people pretty uncomfortable. This led to a rewarding journey that culminated in the formation of Reconciliation Education and a partnership with First Nations University.

That’s all we're going to say about this episode, except that we're eternally grateful to have Andrée and her brilliant daughter in our lives and that our teams are collaborating to bring her work to a wider audience in Canada and perhaps beyond.

How Canada is Facing its Tragic Indigenous History with Reconciliation Education’s Andrée Cazabon

Most of the time on Grow For Good™ we speak with companies that operate with people and planet in mind. After all, it’s a big world with a lot of people in it. You know what else? There’s a whole lot of animals of all kinds as well. So today is a departure from our people-focus, but not the planet, as we speak with Jeannette Ferran Astorga, the global head of sustainability for Zoetis, an enormous company dedicated to delivering quality medicines and vaccines to the animal kingdom, including our beloved pets. 

Jeannette’s deep experience in corporate sustainability and ESG initiatives primed her for the challenge of representing this leading global provider of animal health and the challenges are immense. From assisting communities suffering from the effects of climate change in order to best serve the world’s animal populations to signing on to tackle some of the biggest challenges set forth by the United Nations in terms of sustainability goals, Zoetis has placed animal health and wellbeing and corporate social responsibility at the center of all they do. 

We cover a lot of ground with Jeannette, including a bit about her background in CSR and how a company as large and far reaching as Zoetis coordinates activities that honor local communities in disparate regions of the world. We hope you enjoy this conversation with Jeannette as we continue our journey together learning how some companies, both large and small, are coming together to meet the challenges of tomorrow.

Sustainability at a Global Scale with Zoetis' Jeannette Ferran Astorga

This is one of those interviews that makes you question if and how you’ll ever do enough in your own life. Not in a depressing way, but in a way that makes you question what is possible. Joe Kenner is the CEO of Greyston Bakery and the non-profit entity that helps support its efforts. 

Many of you, whether you realize it or not, have probably come across Greyston’s products. At least if you like ice cream. Their brownies appear in several of the most classic and popular Ben & Jerry’s ice cream flavors.

We talk with Joe about Greyston’s fascinating origin story, the amazing brownies the bakery turns out each day to the tune of 40,000 pounds and what makes this operation so very unique. It’s one of those incredible stories that will restore your faith in humanity and make you wonder just what is possible when you hear the lengths Greyston goes to help its community and serve those in need by offering them employment, dignity and mobility.
