The Bergamot Promise
Who we are and what we stand for doesn't begin or end with us. It all starts with and ends with all of you; Vermont Community and the folks that live, shop and work in the green mountains. Every month, since the very beginning, a chunk of our company profits, a physical donation (or a combination of the two) are redirected and donated back into our local communities here in Vermont - Helping families in need, supporting youth programs, raising scholarship funds for young adults, helping silent auctions and fundraisers, even just to purchase community breakfast and coffees 'just because' you can work better with a full stomach and a cup of joe. The Bergamot Promise is simple. It's to do good by those around you. Help out when you can, and leave greed for the big corporations. We aren't in this to 'get rich', we are in this because we are passionate about making, and LOVE this little state and all the amazing people in it. We promise, for as long as we exist to always pay it forward and do our absolute best to leave this world better than how we found it, whether its small acts of kindness or big monetary donations, we'll always do what we can, whenever we can. We encourage you to do the same. <3

Black Bears Girls Youth Hockey
Bergamot + Amor sponsored the Black Bears Youth hockey team so that children in the community who wanted to play the sport, could participate without the heavy financial burdens of sport participation falling on them. We believe that children who have access to healthy activities and participate in sports or anything with community involvement often find inspiration and become better more capable adults in the future. No child should be left out of those opportunities due to their families income status, and that's why we sponsor. To level the playing field and make sure that everyone who wants to play, can play.
Bergamot + Amor Adult Indoor Soccer Team
Bergamot + Amor sponsors an adult indoor soccer team, annually. Just like youth sports, we believe that physical activity and connection is what keeps our communities at their healthiest.
