Sandals Resorts

This Jamaican, family-owned all-inclusive resort brand works with its charitable organization, Sandals Foundation, on a large-scale tree-planting event to combat food insecurity in the Caribbean. The Trees for Life event plans to plant more than 500 food-bearing trees across the Caribbean. Since the Sandals Foundation’s inception, 21,651 trees have been planted. More than 90 percent of the produce and poultry served at Sandals Resorts comes from local farms. Sandals Resorts also recently launched composting sites at select resorts to assist in sustainability goals.

WorldMark by Wyndham

The vacation club brand soon launches a Planting Seeds environmental education program. The new program introduces guests at WorldMark Portland Waterfront Park to the concept of urban permaculture through various workshops. Urban farming offers benefits from sustainability to fighting hunger. The on-site workshops are complimentary for all guests, and any produce will be donated to a local CSA.

Escape to Tahiti for a Captivating Island-Hopping Cruise

The 118 islands of French Polynesia reveal themselves layer by fascinating layer, with the spirit of mana (vital force) linking them all the way from Tahiti to the remote reaches of the Marquesas. This is part of the world best savored on a journey that dives as deep into culture as natural beauty, both above and below the water’s surface. A cruise makes it easy to cover a lot of ground while unpacking just once (and sneaking in some work done in comfort, too, during at-sea days). And cruising offers particular appeal within this semi-autonomous French territory sprawling across nearly 2 million square miles of ocean and covering five archipelagos.
