Cavallo Goes Plastic-Free...with Great Response!

From Carole Herder: "After 19 years, we have gotten to know our customers well. They are intelligent, savvy, sensible, forward-thinking, and, above all, want to do the very best by their horse. It makes sense that this type of person would also care about our environment and understand the importance of reducing single-use plastic. Although we were personally proud of this initiative, the announcement received more of a response than we ever could have imagined. Hands down, this is the most passionate response we've ever had from any emails, articles, or press releases we've sent out. We're sincerely hoping that more equestrian companies take note of this success and join us in offering plastic-free packaging.

Here’s what some of your fellow horse folks have sent in":

"Thanks for making this change in packaging, Carole. I think it is very important as well and salute you for your decision!"
