"This is a tremendous partnership for The Gummy Project and we are thrilled to have the support of a leading distributor, right here in British Columbia.

One gummy at a time", we knew we wanted to take part in this project that not only supports endangered keystone species, but also to have the ability to aid in creating a better planet and future." - Dean Sellars, Founder and CEO at Dean's.
